    I suggest u don't go on a high-end video card, especially that you'll gonna build a new PC...get a 9600 or 9800GT, not expensive, and it play all the games at the moment, MW2 etc fluently. put the extra money in the new PC and buy some 200series video cards from nvidia

    250's are really good. I've got 2 275's on their way now xD can't wait.

    ATI is good but from my experience of them overheating and just dying out I decided to go green

    I have a shitty ATI card. It came with my iMac. I run Bootcamp on it and partitioned Windows, so my computer runs like shit. Everyone says nvidia is amazing, so that's next on my list.

    I agree that the 4870 is a really good card around the price range of 130-150 but I think it'd be better to save up an extra 30-40 dollars and get a 4890 xD That is if you're willing to go ATI.

    im rocking the ati hd radeon 4870... i only got 5 stars to give !!!! that 1024Mb ram takes pounding damage.... crysis full throttle ( i fogot wut the setting is called either "gamer" or "enthusiast" ) in any way.. crysis at full resolution with a so called mod " highest resolution" wich makes the sight further.. ( takes up more ram since it has to load textures wich are even further away then normal mode... ) it has DDR5 RAM .... the best damn card in my opeinion.. had it since it came out.. nice n quite, cool due to 2 fans that blow cold air onto the 3 heatpispes.... i paid 217 euros for it when it came out.. now its sa damn cheap...

    millions swear on Nvidia cards... i dunt run with the crowd.. i swim agianst the stream ..

    my version is the one form the company called gainward... i never heard of em till i got this card.. and i give it 10 stars !!!!!!

    i bought it over the net.. and read thier user tests n shit.... out of 200 people 80 said its 2 loud.. FUCK THEM lol

    who sits next to their pc and listents to NO mucis, or playes games on mute ????

    another thing people bitched about was the size and connectors..... the PCIe power supply connectors show to the side ( to the side of the panel wich u open .... ) that means if u got a midi tower or a small tower u cant close it..

    once agian FUCK EM and get a bigger tower

    heres sum pics bro ...










    turboschalter = overclocking switch ( form 750 Mhz - 1000Mhz )

    havent used it yet lol .. no need



    heres a shot with it on my board... notice the 2 black pluggs at the end lookin towards the side of the panel






    see how they stick out atleast hmmm 1-2 inches ???? thus they cant close their cases....

    i reccomend u get the one that i have )))


    best case everrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr


    coolermaster stacker 831 SE blk edition ..... all made of 4mm thick aluminium... motherboard tray ( that means u can take it out and work on it without loosing any components )
















    ok i hope that helped sum.-.... its really up to ur prefences... nvidia = alot more xpensive.. they got sick ass cars NO doubt.. but for that money and performace id get ATI .. ur call bro ....

    * passes him a cold brew *
