ATI Radeon HD 4830 (Sapphire, Powercolor and HIS) Review

jmke · 31st October 2008, 15:40

Just over a week ago ATI launched the Radeon HD 4830 which is the latest card in the 4800 series range and hits the market at around £99/$130. Unfortunately, due to a BIOS issue on the first batch of review sample cards (reference models and some retail branded) the full number of unified shaders was not available and performance was therefore negatively impacted (some reviews you have already read on other publications are actually wrong).

Nice video card...competes with 9800GT pretty evenly. Good buy!

I guess which ever one comes with Far Cry 2 would be my pick. XFX 9800GT for sure.
