Almost too cheap to have this much power in a graphics card.
Advantages: Cheap for amazing power, Amazingly Stable, Crossfire Compatable Disadvantages: Bulky, Gets really hot. Nothing else, its perfect except for them 2 things.

But to make it even better the crossfire setup that comes with this series of Ati cards will let you stick another card next to it to double the performance and graphical quality.
With a crossfire setup on a 4850 you can run every game currently out smoothly, and maybe even run all the games coming out at the start of next year. The best bit about a crossfire setup is that it is cheeper than buying one top of the range card. 2 of these can benchmark the same as a £300 nvidia card, when 2 of these would cost you around £160.
The installation is easy to do too, it just slides in the appropriate slot, connect it to the power supply via the supplied cable and it installs itself when your computer next turns on.
The only problem i have found is it gets fairly hot, nothing it cant handle but at max load it does get to around 80 degrees, on a good point though it can run at 80 degrees and still run as stable and smooth as ever. It is also fairly bulky so you have to make sure you have a large tower and not a mini tower.
The fan on it is also next to silent so it doesnt disturb your gaming.
This also works perfectly on Windows Vista and Windows 7, everything runs smoothly, full appearence settings never ran better.
This is the perfect product for a average gamer or just a general Pc user.
Advantages: Solid performance for price, great display driver utility, multi-gpu capable, HD looks amazing Disadvantages: Sometimes, display driver shows that core temp gets high, but hey I am constantly pushing the card
For as long as I can remember I have been an NVIDIA/GEFORCE customer. Many years ago I did try an ATI card but I was very disappointed with its performance, and that was when I decided to shut the door on ATI graphics. Since then, I had upgraded my graphics card to a Geforce 6800, 7800, 8600, and most recently the 8800 GT. Being an avid gaming enthusiast, I was very pleased with the 8800 GT and it was only by sheer bad luck (looking back it was a ... ...ATI HD 4850. One stormy night I had a terrible power surge, and found my computer dead, with a fried psu, mobo, cpu, and graphics card. So I had to rebuild my computer, and started shopping around for a new card. Being a prudent and careful shopper, I did some research on new cards and found some benchmark tests that compared the latest Nvidia cards to the ATI cards. I found that on many tests, the HD 4850 held its own against the top Nvidia cards, ...

I wear sapphire Radeon HD 4850 does not have symptoms that are less satisfying just need a place more than one slot for the installation for the conditioner for graphics processors is greater than the factory recommendation. Viewed in terms of performance sapphire radeon HD 4850 does not disappoint because it has a high-end GPU AMD RV770 which has the stream processors to reach 800 units so that when used on large or resolution 1280 x 1024 pixels ...
