Reviews - Sapphire Radeon HD 4830 512MB - CrossFire making sense?

I got a 4850 myself...was wondering as well if that has a crossfire benchtest somewhere?

There you go but consider that it is coming up for 5 months old so driver updates will have made some results differ a bit.

wow...pretty crappy on the crossfire stuff...

As a general guide check reviews of the 4850X2 they will have very similar performance to crossfired 4850's which basically means GTX280 performance levels.

Hello, I was wondering if someone tried to change the fan speed by using CCC (maybe even editing manually the XML config file for profiles ) or by having a look at the Bios and editing the parameters there.
Is there a way to change the fan speed in this HD4830 card or, like other mid-range cards around, it's not possible due to the design of the card/cooler ?

Thank you
