Need a New GFX Card

[Odom]

Hrm, so many damn choices!

Why is the 5770 so much cheaper than a 4890 if its supporting DX 11?

Because it's not a 5870

Performance wise how do the 2 compare?

4890>5770

So none of you would recommend the GTX 275 at all?

For bang for back the 4890 is king

Is my strange distrust of ATI cards unwarranted?

When is the last time you bought an ATI card...?

 

[Odom]

About 3 - 4 years ago.

Well thats a looong time. ATI have much improved. Both my machines are running ATI cards and they're giving me no problems at all. As soon as the 5870's come in again then I'll be getting myself one of those
