    Priced where this card is, with its, ah, "bombastic" overclocking, this card is a solid buy for any and all budget gamers. This card even begs the question, is it worth going after a 4850 or 9800 GTX? Well, of course it is, but if you've got to make every dollar count, this card's practically irresistible. I kind of wish that I was putting together a budget PC myself so I could run out and stick one of these 4830s in there. Or two, even, the price is so right.

    Best Value

    The ATI-powered HD4830 from Sapphire is showing promise at being one of the best bangs for the buck cards out there. The card retails at about $119 at most major online stores, and the performance numbers put it right under the HD4850, which is where it is supposed to be. This alone will make the HD4830 a hit for Sapphire and AMD. Am I over hyping the HD4830? Not at all, this is a great card for the money. The numbers prove it. I was happy to see that Sapphire went a difference route when it came down to cooling this new card.

    Highly Recommended & Good Value by BigBruin

    The performance of the Sapphire Radeon HD4830 512MB graphics card definitely surpassed expectations. I am not exactly sure how I expected it to fare during testing, but it wound up looking more like an enthusiast grade card than an entry level offering. It should be able to handle just about any game without having to sacrifice too much in terms of frame rates or settings, making it a great option for the gamer on a budget. The positives are numerous, while the negatives are few; with most relating to cost cutting measures that let the card be so competitively priced. The bundle of accessories includes a variety of connectors, but there is no CrossFire bridge. The price and performance of the Sapphire Radeon HD4830 512MB graphics card help it earn the Bigbruin.com awards of "Good Value" and "Highly Recommended".

    OCC Silver

    For the price they offer the power needed to run today's games on medium to high settings with no problem and even take on cards that are designed to be faster than them. When put to the test the Sapphire HD 4830 stood its ground and even matched or beat scores of other cards in its class. I am very pleased to see they brought it to their HD 4830 line as well to aid in cooling. Sapphire did a great job in designing and building the HD 4830 for us.

    Best on the Planet

    The Sapphire HD4830 is an amazing card for its low price. I was very pleasantly surprised at its performance. I was able to run most games maxed out without any performance issues at all and was even able to play Crysis Warhead at an acceptable resolution and settings. The sub-$100 price tag means you can get all of this power without breaking the bank and you can even run multiple GPUs and still be under the prices of the next level up in GPUs. If you are looking for a good buy in the mainstream gamer price range but want to push for enthusiast performance you would not be wrong to pick up one of two Sapphire HD4830s for your system or as a gift from that gamer you know.
