HIS Radeon HD 4850 IceQ 4 Released

HIS has finally brought out its IceQ 4 series HD 4800 series graphics accelerator, this one uses the ATI Radeon HD 4850 graphics processor and uses the fourth generation IceQ 4 dual-chamber cooling technology and continues to maintain a premium look and feel while offering higher levels of cooling performance and the usual UV-sensitive cooler. The card uses reference ATI GPU and memory clock speeds. Expreview reports that this card is already listed by Japanese sales partner Akihabara and priced at US $ 210 there.

Well, i've got mine, seems to make a fairly high pitch noise when it reaches fan speeds over 30%, either i got a dud or it's a common problem, i don't know, but from my experience at the moment if you don't want a high pitch noise in your ear when gaming... don't get it :(

Edit: From various replies in another thread the problem is just my fan, damn dud, ah well, warranty it is

Have you tried gently adjusting the fan? On my old cooler, I remember having some issue where I had to gently press down on the fan itself.

Since that probably won't work, please let us know how the RMA goes and if the new unit is as quiet as you'd expect.
