Palit HD4850 Sonic AMD Radeon HD 4850 Graphics card

In June, we reviewed two ATi HD4850 cards, one from ASUS and the other from PowerColor. Although the HD 4850 received well acclaimed reviews for it's price/performance, the ref HD4850 suffered from a poor fanning solution and it gets too hot, registering a 77 deg Celsius even on idle. Many solutions popped up on the net, including modifying the fan, circuitry, firmware to spin up the fan.
