Depends on the price of the 4890. If the 4890 is $200+ a 5770 would be your best bet because they have dropped in price and has good performance. 5770 is a tad weaker than the 4870 but has DX11.

What is your PSU?

 

[megagabobe1]

650w corsair

See if you can stretch up to an HD5830 for $240, or an HD5850 for $300.

the 5830 is as strong as a 4890 I do believe.

Best to worse
5830 = 4890
4870= 5770 close enough


Again comes down to the price of the 4890. How much does it cost?

 

[shadow187]

HD5830 using the cypress core overclocks much better though.

4890 (200$)> 5830 (260$)> 4870 (160$) > 5770 (150$)

The only thing is, both the 5830 and the 4890 can OC like champs. But the 4890 is faster,and 60$ cheaper.

[shadow187]

HD5830. It uses newer technology. It's only faster if you overclock, however.

 

[builderbobftw]

The 4890 beats the 5830 in all real world benchmarks.

True, You can OC the 5830, but you can also OC the 4890. And the 4890 is 50$ cheaper.

 

[shadow187]

You can OC the HD5830 to better results though.

Better than an OC'd HD4890...

 

[builderbobftw]

Realy? Prove it. Also, the 4890 is 50$ cheaper, so if you want ot comapre the 5830 to the 4890, I want to compare it to a 5850.

Reviews for HD5830 OC aren't many in number.
