hi all,
I'm about to buy a budget rig for light gaming (x3 720, 790gx, 4g ddr2 1066, antec sonata III) and was going to purchase the asus hd4850 for $85. I started to read the reviews and it looks like there are some major overheating issues in the past; has this been resolved or is it fixable with some tweaking?
Also, is this the best value for performance out right now? I can't see spending much more than $100 for the card relative to the other components, and can't seem to find the rebates on the 4870's ppl were talking about earlier.
Thanks!
