First look and specifications
We are going to take a look at a brand new video card that sells for around 120$ and should perform similar to a 4850 video card. I´m sure you already figured out that we are going to review the 4770 card from Asus, we are going to compare it vs a few 4850 cards also from Asus in several benchmarks. The main features on this card is the price/performance, this means you should get ALOT of performance for a small price, so lets have a closer look and see what we can expect from the card.
