ATI Radeon HD 4770 In CrossFire: Unbeatable At $220

TH: "Perhaps I was a little hard on ATI's new Radeon HD 4770 in last week's review. Excited to see planned pricing at $99, it was disappointing when ATI raised the tag to $109, putting the card smack dab between the still-compelling Radeon HD 4830 and Radeon HD 4850 512 MB.

Before that, I was also pretty critical of ATI's Radeon HD 4890. Yeah, it's a nice refresh of a successful GPU, but do I want to pay an extra $70 for 10% more performance? Not really. The Radeon HD 4870 and GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 are already fantastic deals at $180-$190. ATI was clearly just filling in a price gap where it thought it had a chance to upsell some extra clock speed rather than going for its competition's jugular, as it did with the Radeon HD 4850 and 4870 launch.

With multiple Radeon HD 4770s in-hand, though, my tune is much different." (3DMark Vantage, Crysis, Far Cry 2, Left 4 Dead, PC, STALKER: Clear Sky , Tech, World in Conflict)
