do not get the 4870 unless u can afford 2 there is no point of having just one of it for wat 250 bucks? sure its good but not worht the pricesome say its the almost the same performance as 9800 GT maybe higher by a few fps... hold offf ur "computer noob" just for a sec cause im sure thats wat u wanna say rite now. here is some advice wat u c on the internet about gfx cards isnt always reliable ive actually tested a lot of diff gfx cards and imo for the best price and performance ratio u should go for the GTX 260 which imo has better performance than 4870 and around the same price
and well, i have the best score in the clan right now. i love mine. it doesnt lag on any games full maxxed out either.
