I don't know how long you can wait or how much you want to pay. But definately go for HD5850 regardless. The 4850 is a very decent card in this generation (HD4000 and GTX200 series). You will see an improvement going to a GTX275 or HD4890 but imo it is not big enough to justify spending money on them if you already have a card like the 4850.

By not going with a new generation card you miss out on new features (DX11 for example) and a bucket load of performance.
