Its kinda downgrading but I just need someone who wants to swap his 4770 with my 4850.

I am not much into gaming but more into movies and just want my system to eat less power while I do my normal stuff.

PM me if anyone is interested.

The card has more than 2.25 years of warranty left and comes with original box and accessories.

Instead of losing money in this trade, just use Rivatuner to Downclock ur HD4850. This way you will still have the power when you feel like playing heavy games.
 
@ sushantV
i doubt if a stock 4770 can be better than that....
160/500 is insane. i think its default 500/900.
probably at those clocks, it should be down to some 20~25w idle.

also most 4770 wont be having such great coolers.
 
The default clock is 625/993.

I am totally confused man. My rig used to eat like 2W in the whole night. Now its 3-3.5W in the whole night.

I change my motherboard to the one in my siggy, from ASUS M2N E SLI. Changed the CPU to Athlon II 245, from Athlon X2 5200. RAM sticks are the same pi blacks. In fact the 4850 is now out of my rig as well. I am only on onbaord HD3200 which runs at a core clock of 500MHz.

Whats eating that kind of energy in my rig ? I am totally in shock.

Arre there are several bios with that clocks...first msi did that to reduce power....his card idles at that clocks only hence i mentioned trade is no good.
Also m running my 4870 at lower clocks at idle 1v 300/225 and lower volts..40w savings using rivatuner.:P

Ha ha. only 2W or 3.5W you are worried a..

it might be KW, you meant right?

my rig use to take more than that..
 
Sushant, if u are trading to save power, well it's not worth it.

A 4850 clocked down to 160/500 consumes nearly the same power at idle as a 4770.
My PC also stays on 24x7 and a saving of 2-3W won't make any difference to ur electricity bill. See on replacing bulbs or similar things in ur room to save on bills.

Just a piece of advise: If it's for power, keep ur card coz u have a great cooler and a great card. :)

I already use CCFLs. My problem is that my newer HDTV eats too much of elec (150-180W vs 50-60W of my earlier HDTV). I am forced to either reduce my TV watching time or pay more (which I dont want :P). So thinking of ways to reduce the consumption.
