I'm trying to decide to wait until price drop so that I can sell some of my parts now and recoup some of the loss I put into upgrading my whole system. But for now I am looking for a new video card.
How much performance should I see if I get a 5850 on a game like STALKER: SOC when I have everything at 1920x1080 maxed out at 20 fps spiking currently? I was thining ASUS EAH5850, what do you think?
I have a Zalman VF-1000 to use as an upgraded cooler on the new card if I get one, so I would definitely OC it a little bit enough to decent operating temps.
I was looking to get a real cheap 5870 or a real cheap 5850 to satisfy my needs and to future proof me seeing as I just ordered Windows 7 64-bit Ultimate on Friday, so this is going to be fun if I get my DX11 setup running before I can even upgrade the Motherboard/CPU/RAM because I just don't need to yet. (Other current/future games played: Oblivion/STALKER/Dead Space/Diablo 3/Thief 4). What are your thoughts?
