The ATI Radeon HD 4850 became a worthy alternative to the NVIDIA GeForce 8800GTS and GeGorce 9800GTX graphics accelerators from the legendary Canadian manufacturer in 2008. This video adapter was practically no different from its direct competitors in technical specifications, and its cost was significantly lower. As a result, Nvidia was forced to revise its pricing policy and make products more affordable. As a result, buyers have the opportunity to buy a powerful graphics card at a more affordable price from both ATI and NVidia.
