When can we expect nvidia and ATI to launch some of their new graphic cards? I need a new GPU and those currently on the market is in my opinion getting kind of outdated. Most of them can't even handle DX11 that well and i want to play Battlefield: Bad Company 2 smooooth...
best regards

Well, you do realize that Nvidia released their new DX11 cards in the last month, and they just started hitting store shelves end of last week right? Brand spanking new. Also- the ATI 5xxx series cards are also pretty new, and nowhere NEAR being out of date, support DX11, etc. What more do you want? Get a 5970 or 5870, or even a GTX480 and you should be easily fine for BF:BC2

no..? i live in denmark.. they always ship it a 1-2 month later, if it's a popular item. I had to buy my E8400 in britain when it got out just to get it 3 months before everyone else in denmark.
I considered a 5xxx but yeah, just wanted to know if there is expected anything new on the market that could push prices a bit.
Thanks though

Yeah thats right.
Prices seem to vary alot depending on where you live.
For example In the UK a GTX470 is more expensive than a HD5870, and the GTX480 is roughly the same price as a HD5970
The HD5850 is £100 less than a GTX470 making it a good deal
But in america there's only $50 between the HD5850 and GTX470

Nvidia is supposed to roll out its GTX 460 and GF104 (GTS 450, 440 and probably GT 400's) in june/july. There will be more price cuts, and ATi may have ( if they already haven't got ) an RV 970 (HD68xx) in their lab.
Also ATi may be doing a refresh on ist's high end roundup (HD58xx, HD59xx), probably an HD5890 and HD5990.
But if you're in a hurry get one of those HD5800 cards, or eventually an GTX470

Its possible sure, but I find it far more likely that they will continue to fight with the G92 then roll these cards out.

I think i will settle for a HD 5770. Is the leap from 5770 to 5830 worth the 90$? I guess not..The price difference of the HD5850 and the HD5770 is huge and even more so for the 470!
HD5770 = 237$
HD5830 = 320$
HD5850 = 365$
GF 470 = 475$
I hate my country...
NOO way better go HD 5770. HD 5830 isn't worth the money and sometimes it's even lower than the HD 4890 it's "replacing" (has similar performance)
HD 5770 = HD 4870

ye well.. that was kind of why i hoped for an alternative. That they would launch something new. The market (for me) is stuck with only one option; the 5770. It's the better choice in any perspective.
Thanks for the input!
Hmm, but the 5770 doesn't cut it for BF.. sure it can handle it, but not perfectly. I would have to have a 5850 but it's sold out.. jeez

I'm not certain and so i have a quick question for you whizzes...
I have a corsair HX520W PSU - is this sufficient for a HD5770? I take it is. but if you could elaborate a bit, where is the limit for this PSU? a HD5850 should be no problem too but what about Crossfire HD5770?
My PSU is one solid motherf***** at low watts though..

Well i think it should handle a 5770 but not 5850 and 2x5770 in Xfire. I think a 5770 would be the limit (from nvidia gts250, not sure about gtx260)

Bummer! That PSU was expensive as hell.. oh well..In my point of view the power consumption for the 5850 is not that big of a leap if you look at the charts (compared to 1x 5770).
Thanks though.
Well it might handle HD 5850 afterall:

I'm pretty much sure it will be stable, it's a corsair PSU right? I saw it's review at OC club, and it's very good PSU.
But i still think it won't be enough for 2x5770:S

Aw man, i just settled for a 5770 (spend the whole morning thinking about it)... and now i have to think it all over.
5770 or 5850, i hate that dilemma!! I got the money for 5850 but i don't use my computer a whole lot anymore (but that might change).. There's a huge performance leap between the two models but currently there's also a price difference of 90$.. mhm..
But yeah, it's a very solid corsair PSU.

That PSU will easily handle any of those cards. It will also handle 2x5770 as long as you have them on separate 12V rails from eachother. AMD recommends 600W, but those numbers are always inflated to account for all the crappy cheapo PSU's out there. A GOOD quality 520W PSU like your corsair, will have no problem with double 5770s.
Edit: 5770 crossfire will have a typical load of around 150W, with a max of ~200W if you synthetically load it, but you'll never see that high in normal use. That leaves you a full 320W for the rest of your system, which is more than plenty.

I thought so.. I bought an MSI 5770 hawk because the 5850 model is sold out till june.
Hopefully the hawk model will have a longer lifespan than the usual cards and then i can go crossfire in a year or so.
I know that ultimately, one 5850 is better than two 5770, cause.. it just is.
Also i play at 1650x1200 resolution.
