need some help most likely putting it in a an asus maximus II board or rampage...ideas why or why not...im not really looking to xfire right away...and sli would be out of question..but they are the same price

if you overclock ( i assume you do with all of the money you are spending), then get the 260. If not, get the 4870.
That is the rule of this generation.

the 4870 1gig runs circles round the 260/216 in nearly every game
