Selling my old card, just replaced it with a 5850. Before considering, please note that the card has small square-like artifacts that flash around the screen, much like if the card was overclocked. While in my possession, the card has not been overclocked. I know the previous/original owner, but cannot guarantee he did not overclock the card.

I ran an "underclock" on the card and determined that at the values;

Core Voltage= 1262mV (stock)
Core Clock= 700MHz (stock=750MHz)
Memory Clock= 800MHz (stock=900Mhz)

the card is completely stable with no artifacts. Tested with Techpowerup GPU tool and 3DMark06. 3DMark06 score at these values was 19439 with the rig in my sig.

Asking $70 USD, I will pay first $5 in shipping. I will also, because of the nature of the card, offer 100% return if the card fails within the first 2 weeks of arrival.

Hey im interested in this since im just running a 4850 and this looks like a good upgrade. I was just curious about how long you ran it stable on those settings for?

I ran it at its stock settings while in my possession, and it was not crashing or anything, it just had occasional artifacts.

At the settings I found of time of post, I ran a test for about an hour without any artifacts or instability.
