However, the 5850 is a better value for your dollar, since its performance is fairly close, but it costs a good bit less. Don't buy the 4870 or 4890.

OP OP G grapesofwonder Baseband Member Messages 30 Sep 21, 2010 #3 Thanks, can you tell me how much each of them cost roughly and were I can purchase them?

OP OP G grapesofwonder Baseband Member Messages 30 Sep 21, 2010 #5 Thanks! What would be better a GTX 460/65 or a 5850?
foothead Omnicide now. Messages 10,027 Location My own personal hell Sep 21, 2010 #6 Do not buy a 465. They are absolutely terrible. 5850 is better than a GTX 460.
