I'm looking at spending £180-£200 next month on an upgrade and I had in mind a new PSU and gfx card.

I need to replace my PSU as my Tagan died a few months ago and I haven't got round to replacing it properly (Currently using a 425W Hiper)

(Was looking at a OCZ ModXStream Pro 500w Silent SLI Certified Modular Power Supply)
I was thinking about a Ati 5770 but after reading more I'm not sure if I should go for a 4890 :S


The only game I play daily is BF2 but I do get the latest games and play single player then move on such as... Crysis, COD series, DiRT 2.

I don't plan on upgrading for a while as well.

I play at 1680x1050.


So 4890 or 5770?


Thanks.
 
I'd say the 5770. Better in the long run :). 4890 does have some paper benefits over the 5770, but with your resolution the 5770 should give excellent performance, plus a great featureset..





(EDIT: ooooh hitman :D..sorry)
