What would better, should I keep my HD3870 in CF or should I upgrade to the Diamond HD4870 XOC Black edition. I have a 22 inch Monitor so I play at a 1680 x 1050 resolution. The rest of my system is as follows:
I'd switch... you'll get more performance out of your setup... although it may not really be worth it... your setup can play all of those games except crysis at max...
i'm getting a black edition when I get home from vacation... currently visiting grand parents on the other side of the country... then i'm going to OC the sh*t out of it due to the unlocked bios
If you're satisfied with performance then I wouldn't do it. If you can hold out for another 6 months there will likely be new cards that would be a more significant step up.
On the other hand, if you can get a good price for your current cards (try craigslist people are always overcharging for computer hardware on that site) then it might be worth it.
