...these two XFX Radeon 4890 Cards?

One is 10 bucks more than the other and one is named "489X-ZSFC" and the other is "489A-ZDFC". That's about all I see...even though when I click Specs and one has a few more things different than another, I don't get what they mean...

Just checked XFX site and the only 2 differences are:
HD-489A-ZDFC has the game "HAWK" bundled and its dimensions are 9.5 x 4.376 x 3.8
and the HD-489X-ZSFC hasn't any bundled games and its dimensions are 9.5 X 4.376 X 1.5

I could have sworn I answered this question 3 days ago......... one runs @ 3600 one @ 3900........ the second one........ you can also set the fan speed in the ccc to run at 37% and it will keep the card cooler and push the hot air out of your case vs the other one.

I see. What if you compare those two XFX's to these two HIS's. The HIS seem cheaper yet the clock on it is the same or better.

seems as if the Turbo+ performs the same as the $200+ one yet it is cheaper. What you think? Which of these four is worth the buy. Btw, im running on 1920x1080 full HD 23'' monitor, i5 processor, 4 gig ram, 700w psu, win7 32 bit. Im mainly using it for recent games, Fallout 3, Assassins Creed II, CoDMW2, etc.

You might as well go for the gusto. They really have the memory cranked up on the second one.
