What should i go for? Im looking at either 6870 or 6850 for

Playback of 3d blu rays
Silent at idle, doesnt matter so much at load.
Capable for games at 1080 at higher gfx settings
I dont mind used
Fanless card is too expensive.
 
is the 6870 not worth going for?

does msi afterburner work with non reference cards? i use it with a 6950 in my main system.

i was avoiding reference because i believed that some after market coolers were quieter? [by after market i mean Asus, MSI, Gigabyte etc]
 
Looks like i missed the 6850 preorder anyway, also i cant xfire on the matx board.

Think i may wait for the 7xxx series now want 6870 perfirmance really
