I agree with the other guy man. Check out newegg and check out the reviews. I'm buying all the parts from newegg for the new comp I'm having built.

Actually ATI has faster cards now (even tho nVidia has the fastest GPU), but their **** video drivers are screwing them hard.

Not really. I have a 4850 now and i would say its decent. A 4870 would be pretty killer at those prices, i would say just get 2 of them and run em in crossfire. That would be a cakewalk for any game u wish to play on max settings.

no it would be better to got for 1 card then 2 if you can because of scaleing and id recommend the Geforce GTX 295 if your looking for a high end video card
