HD 3870,3850, or 4670 for under eighty

[ahem]

Which of these cards is the best?

ATI HD 3870

ATI HD 3850

ATI HD 4670

I need it for under 80.00 bucks w/ good cooling

4670 is the fastest among those. Add up to $20 more and you could get a 4850.

Actually from my experience the 3870 is a little faster. I have the 4670 in my i7 and the 3870 in my e8400. But for the extra power required I would choose the 4670 over the 3870 since in games they are close (even tho in 3d mark there is a big difference). I would also agree on the 4850.

3870 will shred 4670
