pag shorts dha bai oi master lage. nka Asus P5 mobo paku ato bro nya ACbel PSU 560 (510watts), 2x2GB kingston value ram, e6550 - 2.90GHz OC. dli mo boot pag 1st butang naku sa videocard amaw kaayo, mao to akong g set defaults after ok na. =)

lolz... hehehheheh nice kaayu unsa na diay imu Riggers karon?

Update.... Ki try balik sa akong seller friend. it works in his PC

that HD4770 hates me because i watch porn, it hates the crappy psu. and it hates the hot case
basin it loves its owner becuase he is doesnt watch porn

btw.... OK ra ba ang silverstone ST50F-230 modular it only cost 3900 sa PCX ? mao ni akong na kit an nga PSU nga akong next project umaabot nga sweldo.

ok now this is weird. just now my 4850 shut down because it apparently overheated at 50C. isn't that cool enough for a 4850? my idling temp is 42C, goes to 50C when i play Aion. i read in some forums that their 4850 even reaches 100C. how come i overheat at 50C? O_O

Dynamo 600w.. bitaw murag dli ni overheating issue kay bugnaw pa kaau ni compared sa uban nga maabot 100C. gi suwayan nako tang2x ang catalyst control center then ako gigamit nga driver kay ang sa microsoft. ako sa observan ni. pero dli jud ko mutoo overheating ni.


EDIT: I did a stability/stress test using FurMark with the current microsoft driver and everything went well. Max temp was 60C and it never shut down, so i guess it was some driver/Catalyst Control issues.

here are the results of my stress test:

Looking good imo. Nevertheless im considering on trading this to a GTS 250 since the heatsink is so HUGE it covers my SATA ports. Im using 1 HDD atm since only 1 SATA slot is available and the others covered by the 4850.

Fern, have you tried a BIOS update on your motherboard? Your mobo manufacturer may have a new BIOS version that can resolve that problem. Also, what Catalyst version are you using?

[dexlimp]

try another psu bro..png huwam sa imo amigo f la ka spare hehehe..

@fern: this really is the same problem i had with i reviewed the EAH4770. come to think of it, we almost share the same setting; gigabyte motherboard and EAH4770

anyway, the 4770 doesn't require that much power, drawing only 85 watts. think of it this way, the PCIE slot provides up to 75 watts of power and the remaining requirement is taken from the PCIE power connector so its really not demanding. i beleive that this is an issue coming from the motherboard.
