4850 vs 8800 gts 320.

Is it worth while getting a 4850 over a Gts?

I'm not prepaired to pay the prices Nvidia are asking for new cards these days.

The gts has done extremely well for the past year considering it was bargain basement when i got it, its now coming up to my annual upgrade and i'm looking at new graphics card for sure.

I have had a 3850 512mb, 8800GTS 640mb, 3870/50 crossfire, 8800GTS 512mb, and now a 4850 and I can tell you the 4850 is definitely the best of all the setups I've been through.

This card absolutely ploughs through games, at higher resolutions and with AA + AF.

I went from a 320mb GTS to an 8800 GT, and even that was a massive performance increase, so 4850 will be even more, as its faster than the GT, so its definately worthwhile.

I am just wondering if you (or anyone else) has crossfired a 4850 with a 3850/ 3870?

Try adding a bunch of AA and AF You'll see even more of a massive difference from the G80 then
