Hey -
I am looking to put a new card(or two) in my new system:
AMD Phenom II x3 720
ASUS M4A78T-E
2 GB Corsair XMS
80 GB SATA I HDD
__________(Graphics Card)
Anyways, I was wondering if anyone had input on what to get or whether one of these 3 choices I have thought through would be best! Thanks
2x ATI Radeon HD 4850 in Crossfire:
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161244
(My motherboard only supports x8 Crossfire, would this be a problem?)
1x ATI Radeon HD 4870
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814161265
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814121291
(Should i get one of these or the XFX with double warranty?)
or
1x ATI RAdeon HD 4890
http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814127427
--------------------------
Is the HD 4890 overkill for my system especially considering I use 1680*1050?
Would it be better to go with an HD4870 that is OCed or better cooling?
Or is crossfire the way to go?!
Thanks for your input!
