What sort of performance losses will occur going from 4870 to 5750?

Hi all,

I currently have a Sapphire ATI Radeon HD 4870 1024MB GDDR5 Toxic Edition card. What sort of performance loss will I experience if I was to change to a PowerColor SCS3 HD5750 1GB GDDR5 passively cooled card?

Thinking of this due to it being silent, I am guessing it will outperform the onboard graphics of a 785G motherboard, yet still allow me some game play?

Varies in games but you're looking at around +/-20% drop in performance compared to a 4870.
