ATI HD4850 my GPU

1. For those who keep on asking me about my GPU. It is ATI radeon HD4850 which belongs to the ATI HD4800 series- the best ATI ever made and has memory 512Mb DDR3.

DDR5- The higher data rates supported by GDDR5 (up to 5x that of GDDR3 and 4x that of GDDR4) enable more bandwidth over a narrower memory interface, which translates into superior performance delivered from smaller, more cost-effective chips. Leave aside your ram at DDR2 then.

2. To make it clear for those who keep on asking me its ‘memory’. FYI memory is not the final spec which describes the GPU’s performance. The GPU is tested under practical conditions and the frame rates are measured at different resolutions and detail levels. Anti-ailiasing(AA) and anisotropic filtering(AF) are other details switched either on or off depending on the test.

3. For people who do not appreciate its power, I have given some of its specs, pics and benchmarks below (copied from various sources). You can locate the name HD4850 in the benchmarks map. Then try the same test with your GPU.

SPECS: The Radeon 4850 is based on the RV770PRO graphics processor and will be combined with 512 MB GDDR3 memory in this retail configuration. The GPU is clocked at 625 MHz and the memory at 2000 MHz.

The following is the benchmark for Crysis played at 1920X1200 resolution with no antiailiasing. And the numbers on the bar indicate the frame rate.
