It says the parts not required are "keyboard and mouse" then it says "and sensitive mouse for FPS gaming"

So do you need a mouse or not?

Ouch me thinks the HD 6850 is a far better buy than a HD 5850 and also the HD 6870 @@ Trumpeted across as many reviews i had energy reading today hehe

From what I've seen thus far (I haven't gone through too many tho) on a single card alone a 5850 is similar to a 6870 (with the 6870 being a bit better), but the real benefit of the 6000 series at the look of things is that they CF better. (same thing that you've seen b1?) Add that to a lower price and it's quite a nice improvement.

Yep so better CF scaling, lower power draw and some multi display refinements that AMD has to explain better @@ The price point is the clincher o cos hehe
