i currently have an overclocked GTS 250 512mb.
i want to upgrade it to either a gtx 260, ATI 5770 or ATI 5830. but i dont know which one.
I am still saving enough money to buy one.
in here where i live things are expensive.
so a gtx 260 costs me $304. ATI 5770 is $270 atleast and ATI 5830 is $424.
the new gen of nvidia cards are very expenive. cant afford them.
ati 5770 can be weak at some games. it can be slowe than both 260 and 4870. and it has only 128 bit bus.
and for 260, it can be overclocked to match the performance of a 275 or even a 280. but when i looked at new games benchmarks like metro 2033 and Splinter cell convition, i saw that 260 is very low on fps and ati cards even 5770 is faster than 275 and 260.
so ati 5830 cought my eyes. since it can be overclocked and be as fast as a 5850. but its expensive. but i think i can save up to $424 till 2 or 3 more weeks.
but do u think its worth the money?
should i buy 260 and overclock it or save up for 5830?????
and im looking to play all my games at 1600*1200 res with 4xaa and no AF on very high settings. AF is not important to me.
