ATI Radeon HD 4830: specs and benchmarks
Summary
ATI started Radeon HD 4830 sales 21 October 2008 at a recommended price of $130 . This is a TeraScale architecture desktop card based on 55 nm manufacturing process and primarily aimed at office use. 512 MB of GDDR3 memory clocked at 1.8 GHz are supplied, and together with 256 Bit memory interface this creates a bandwidth of 57.6 GB/s.
Compatibility-wise, this is single-slot card attached via PCIe 2.0 x16 interface. Its manufacturer default version has a length of 246 mm. 1x 6-pin power connector is required, and power consumption is at 95 Watt.
It provides poor gaming and benchmark performance at 2.14% of a leader's which is NVIDIA GeForce RTX 4090.
