Looking for HD3470 video card for HTPC I can't find a new one anywhere, so I'll buy used if someone has one they would like to be rid of. I'd prefer one with a blue PCB to match my mobo. At this point I can't be too picky though. Alternately, I'll consider a 3450 if the price is right. |
You mean something like this? NCIX.com - Buy Sapphire Radeon HD 3450 256MB DDR2 PCI-E DVI-I VGA TV-OUT DIRECTX10.1 Lite Retail Video Card - 100233L In Canada. It's even blue! |
That's a 3450. I'm looking for a 3470. I said I'd consider a used 3450 if it were cheap enough. |

just a thought- this is a sweet card, cheap, on board hdmi. and blue Buy Gigabyte Radeon HD 4550 600MHZ 512MB 1.6GHZ GDDR3 PCI-E16 Dual DVI-I HDCP HDTV Out Video Card |
My reasons for wanting a 3470 specifically is that I'm trying to do Hybrid Crossfire and I want to make the most of it. Only 2400 and 34X0 will work, apparently. |
I have tried hybrid Crossfire and it is a complete waste of time. It did nothing to improve graphics speed/power and it only caused me more incompatibilities with software/games. |
The reviews I've read indicated anywhere between 40 and 70% improvement, depending on the title. What titles did you have trouble with? |
Half Life 2 EP1 & 2, Trackmania, Need For Speed pro Street and a few others. I did use a HD3450 so maybe that was my issue, but I have a hard time believing 40-70%. I could be wrong, of course, but just be careful as to what you expect. |
