    Yeah. 5870. Goes for something like $380 right now. Looks like a screamer GPU tho.

    Personally waiting for the 5850. $380's a bit much since I don't game as much as I used to...

    Im waiting for them to come out so theyll drop the price on the 4XXX series. The 4870 will be more than Ill ever need probably as I doubt Ill ever have anything bigger than a 22" monitor and that card will max out most games on a 22. When the 4870's hit $100, Im there!

    There's no such thing as "more than I'll ever need" in terms of processing power in a Crysis thread. :p

    Frontside bus is a bid deal. If your getting bad FPS and you have all that juice you may want to look at INF drivers and CPU settings. I had a huge bottle neck on my Q9650 and I just had to adjust where I was getting the power.
