September 4, 201114 yr I have these two video cards. The 4670 seems to have more cores & seems to be a little faster then the 4850 with 1 meg. I don't quite know what to make of it since the 4670 is the older card. Also the 4850 runs at about 43C at idle while the 4670 runs at 57C at idle. Is the temperature a concern? Which card would you use? Thanks. Pat Callaghan Pat Callaghan Jr. Ryzen 9-9900x Asus Tuf Gaming 870x 64gig DDR5 ram, RTX 4070 Super Win 11 Pro
September 4, 201114 yr The 4850. It beats the other card considerably.

September 4, 201114 yr Author Thanks for the response. I was wrong on the temps. The 4850 runs at 57C at idle. Last night I ran FSX & it got up to 79C. Is that a problem? Pat Pat Callaghan Jr. Ryzen 9-9900x Asus Tuf Gaming 870x 64gig DDR5 ram, RTX 4070 Super Win 11 Pro
September 4, 201114 yr No. There should be some form of manual fan control in the software. Just increase the fan a bit if you feel its getting too hot Di Agron Dell XPS 15 L502X | Intel i5-2540m @ 2.60GHz | 4GB DDR3 1333MHz (2x2GB) | nVidia GT525M | Seagate 500GB 7200RPM | 15" 1366x768 | 23" LG 1360x768 | Got a hardware question?

September 4, 201114 yr Author Thanks. I think the Catalyst software has fan control. Pat Pat Callaghan Jr. Ryzen 9-9900x Asus Tuf Gaming 870x 64gig DDR5 ram, RTX 4070 Super Win 11 Pro
September 4, 201114 yr Author OK, so I have the 4850 in & did a test flight from PDX-SEA. Temps did not get above 67C with manual fan control. Then I get out I have some graphics issue in firefox. See screenshots. well I don;t know how to attach a screenshot so I think I will just go back to the 4670.
