I'm in the process of shopping for a new graphics card and I have narrowed it down to three options but I'm having trouble with the performance/value comparison. The three cards are a stock Asus HD4830 for $100 +s/h; an OC'd Asus 4850 TOP for $135 +s/h; and a XFX 9800 GT XXX which has free shipping (about $9) and comes with Call of Duty world at war. (These are all on Newegg.com)
So my question is, with the 9800 GT overclocked (670 core clock, 1950 mem clock) how does it compare to the other two cards? It's right in the middle pricewise, plus the free game, but overall is it better than the 4830? Or is the 4850 (OC'd 680/2100) have enough performance advantage to justify the extra $25?
Any opinions would be helpful.
