3870 Range or any thing better for £120

[Scougar]

4850 100% all the way too the hilt.

Although, 3870 for £60 as mentioned is fantastic deal. Perhaps buy it and flog it on?

I've seen half a dozen 3870 sell for £60 recently so not that great a deal.

Hell, for £90 or less you can have a 8800GTX which is a good deal.

It's a falling market in the 2nd hand graphics card business. If you can manage £117 then the 4850 new is the one to buy.

8800Gt's are/will be around £60 and are well worth considering too if on a budget and happy with 2nd hand.

Thanks for fast replys guys. Why the difference in price RealDeal??

Im hoping the old card will be covered by warranty but its 17 months old. If not looks like getting one of the

Powercolor ATI Radeon HD 4850 512MB GDDR3 TV-Out/Dual DVI/HDMI (PCI-Express) - Retail

Looks good and the same price I paid for my 7900. Will I see a masive performance increase?

1 more thing what a bout Nvidia? owt worth while?

I put a link in for the same card as yewen but just after that he lowered the price again lol. What a nice guy he is.

if you could get a 3870x2 for the same price as a 4850.... which would you go for?

4850, bound to always work And you probably have great resale value on that one

Sorry to go off topic a little, but is the 4850 really better than the 3870? And by how much, is it more beneficial to get a 4870?

 

[PhoenixUK]

~40-50% faster i would say.
