First off let me start by saying Hi. I am a new member of these forums and I will be looking forward into getting into some interesting conversations about the PC world. With that being said I have been reading and trusting the opinions of these forums since I started building PCs over 3 years ago. So I thought a good first post would be an opinion poll.
Okay here's the deal (I have about 450$ to spend).....
Would upgrading my EVGA GTX 285 F.T.W. to a Gigabyte 5870 be worth the extra money to performance ratio?
Has anyone done it? Does anyone here have the 5870 and if so what;s your experience?
Do you think the 2% yield's on the new Nvidia cards are to be believed? Any info would be great in any direction to either steer me towards or away. Right now I do have the money to burn. I'm just being more wishy washy than normal.
Thank you for your help.
