I understand this depends on the monitors you have available for the test, which is why it's even more surprising as you had 1920 in one of the tests and then none.
This is obviously not a solution for me, AFAIK, but I'll wait for more tests at max resolutions. |
Yup, I do have 1080P ready monitor. but its 16:9 resolution TV

Thats why you can see 1920x1080 resolution in 1 gaming test. And 1 1920x1200 test was done when friend's dell landed here at my place for a day. Couldnt complete all tests that day as even this motherboard was to ship out the next day.
If someone sends me a 24incher for review and for keepers, i will start including high resolution results
its really difficult to keep moving test rig to the televiosion set and back in my room.
As far as the price goes. This is not yet available in India in retail afaik. I couldnt find it in stock with anyone. All say it is expected soon. US retail pricing is same as any other HD4870 1GB card. around $300.
