Upgrading my Desktop

Hmm. I noticed the GTX 260 superclocked for about the same price as the 4850 x2. Would you still suggest the 4850 x2?

either one will be sick

but the 4850x2 setup will take a lot more power and a crossfire compatible board

 

[foothead]

Th x2 would be better than the 260.

 

[ndatoxicity]

it would...but you need to run crossfire and stuff.....and it will run you a lot of power bill $

No, the HD 4850 X2 is a "single card" dual GPU. Not a dual card Crossfire setup.

 

[ndatoxicity]

oh ok, i thought he was going to run crossfire

 

[foothead]

Yep.
It doesn't use that much power.

 

[ndatoxicity]

then yeah...go 4850x2, but either one will be an upgrade over your current setup

*cough* GTX 260 Core 216.
