Hey everyone

Which of these graphics cards do you think represent the best value for perfomance ?
(they are both listed on the toms price/perfomance guide for july)

ive read various benchmarks and cant decide on whether the extra £38 or so pounds is worth it between
the 5770
(http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/Other+products/VTX+ATI+Radeon+HD+5770+1024MB+GDDR5+PCI-Express+Graphics+Card+?productId=38291)

or the 5830
(http://www.aria.co.uk/SuperSpecials/Other+products/XFX+ATI+Radeon+HD+5830+%22AVP+Edition%22+1024MB+GDDR5+PCI-Express+Graphics+Card+?productId=40295)

or do you think its worth waiting a while to see how the GTX 460 turns out ?

I was originaly planning on spending around £120 but im wondering if the extra £40 or so would give me significantly more for my money ?

thanks

For value/performance ratio, 5770. For just performance both the HD 5830 and GTX460 (i suppose it'll be a tie, according to unofficial GTX460 specs), so HD5830=GTX460>HD5770
