Even considering the 4850x2 is cheap, get a DX11 Card

The op is getting the 4850X2 for only €70. Even if he was to buy low-end DX11 card for €70 it would be like 4-8 times slower. The 5850 is barely faster than the 4850X2 and it costs 3 times more, in some games and resolutions the 4850X2 could even outperform the 5850 or 5870.

Howabout a 8800 Ultra?

The 8800 Ultra is pretty old, again a huge step up from the 9500 GT but its still old and its performance doesnt weigh up against similarly priced recent video cards.

For 70 euros you will not find a faster card than the 4850X2 used. If you are buying new get the 5750/5770..
