Hi all, i'm new to the forums. :)
I wanted to ask which graphics card i should get,
my current card: 2900pro, doesn't handle shadows and AA good, All i get in some games for a shadow when i have AA on is a square kinda shadow :(

So i was trying to decide what new card to get and i can't decide between the 4870HD or the GTX260, the GTX is abit cheeper than the 4870, but its also abit slower, however the 4870 has a very high temp, which i dont like so the 4870 would cost me about £25 more than the 260 on paper as ill have to buy a good cooler too,

so i was just wondering is the 4870 worth £25 more than the GTX260??
my budget is about £150-170max :)

i also have a 3rd option which is too wait a little longer and see if anything new comes out or wait for a good price drop in the two cards.

Thanks for reading :)
