I'm looking to get the last part for my new system. Currently the system consists of:
-ASUS M4A79 Deluxe Motherboard
-AMD Phenom II X4 940 Black Edition CPU
-G.SKILL 4GB (2 x 2GB) SDRAM DDR2 1066
-SIGMA MONSTER 650W PSU
I was looking to get the SAPPHIRE TOXIC Radeon HD 4870 1GB. It's got good reviews and what appears to be a very good cooling solution with the copper heat-pipes. However, now with the 4890 series being released I'm stuck and can't decide between them. Since they're similiar in price, do I go for the faster of the 2 cards... or go with the 'slower' card which I'm sure will OC better with the better cooling... Ahhhh decisions decisions lol... Once again, any help would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
