Okay. You can post your cards or post the cards you want or whatever. This means GPU's. The thread goes here, for lack of a better place.
This one looks too powerful to be not a typo.

This is my puppy. She's over a year old, but I've had nothing but luck with her. No problems, ever.

Mines an nvidia 8800gt which I cannot find on there for whatever reason.

I'm using a Radeon HD2900XT currently. Performance is still amazing, but power consumption is uh.. not so good.
I'm planning to upgrade to the 4870X2 at some point.

This is mine. Spore crashes, Sacred 2 (sucks) crashes, and sometimes (most of the time) with blue screens of death.

Is it possible for a single gpu to have memory clocks of 3600-3800?
Graphics Card Thread - Waffuru - 08-27-2009
yes, GDDR5
Graphics Card Thread - Vad - 08-27-2009
I'm an Nvidia person. Never had any other card in my machine. ATI makes an evenly matched card, sometimes better, but it's personal preference at this point.
On another note. See this card?:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130402
Core Clock: 600 MHZ right?
Now goto mine: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814130311
And look at the core clock. Woo! 684 MHZ baby.
That's the only thing I beat though. 256 stream processor's two GPU's in that thing. It nukes my card in capability and because of that is most likely faster.
But still. ^_^

Is that memory speed worth the increase of 20-40 dollars over the 4850?
Graphics Card Thread - Sage - 08-27-2009
64mb integrated!
YEEEEEAAAAAAH BOOOOIIEEEEE!!!!!
Graphics Card Thread - Ashe - 08-27-2009
I know its old, but I'm still using my dinosaur of a Radeon HD 4850X2
Graphics Card Thread - Cain - 08-27-2009
On another note, I overclocked my card earlier from 650 core to 700.14 and 800 memory to 902.86 with no noticeable problems. A little slow down just now though.
Edit: With ATITool .26
The ambient temperature sits at 40 celsius and the gpu temp at 59, which has stayed there since. It came with a 30 dollar fan though.

That.
I've gone back and forth between nVidia and Radeon. I don't prefer one brand of hardware over another, but all other things being equal I prefer to avoid dealing with the Radeon drivers.

Mine is a Nividea G Force 9800M GS 512MB dedicated.
Graphics Card Thread - Waffuru - 08-27-2009
I've also used a number of cards from both ATi and nVidia. I usually prefer the ATi cards because they (in my experience) are cheaper and often run cooler. I don't have any problems with the current generation ATi drivers or nVidia drivers for that matter, unless you are using a television as a display. I always had a bitch of a time getting the nVidia drivers to output properly on non-LCD monitors.

If you have a card with something better than stock cooling, like one of those good fans like Vad's has and Riva Tuner you can overclock the crap out of your card.
Standard Core clock 650
Memory 800
Current clocks: 801 core
1025 memory
Current temp, still a cool 58c.
Graphics Card Thread - Vad - 08-29-2009
Just for reference my GPU has hit 200 degree's Fahrenheit. I can't remember the Celsius number for that, but...heh...don't do it. Trust me.
Graphics Card Thread - Cain - 08-29-2009
Yeah. Don't do either of those two things. Opening a game, given Riva Tuner either didn't include or I didn't know how to use a graphics intensive test on it, it resulted in a crash when loading said game.
A small overclock of 689 did the trick (and about 900 on the memory) warranted max settings on oblivion not using HD, with several intensive mods on a 256 megabyte memory of the card.
NOTE: Overclocking voids your warranty.
