9800GTX2 Vs 4850?

If you mean 9800GX2 then it beats the 4850 in everything and almost everything v 4870

£225 http://www.overclockers.co.uk/showproduct.php?prodid=GX-141-LT&groupid=701&catid=56&subcat=1009&name=Leadtek%20GeForce%209800%20GX2%201024MB%20GDDR3%20TV-Out/Dual%20DVI/HDMI%20(PCI-Express)%20-%20Retail

Come to think of it your PSU should be fine with it, depends on your case as they are big cards
Not sure if it's worth extra £50 over the 4870

My card is huge. So plenty of room there. Sorry I meant the 9800gx2, I get confused with all the changes.

I seen benchmarks of the 9800GT and the 4850 was like only a couple fps faster, not much over the 8800GT the 4850.
