I am looking at two used GPU's, options. 460 SLI for $320 or 5870 for $300. Which should I get?
APPROXIMATE PURCHASE DATE: It's used so ASAP.
USAGE FROM MOST TO LEAST IMPORTANT: Crysis Warhead, home theater/watching movies. (Just getting back into gaming, more games to follow.)
CURRENT GPU AND POWER SUPPLY: 8800 GT SC 512MB SLI, Ultra LSP 650 (+12V 1: 38 A) I WILL get a new PSU.(Don't like this one all that much. only had it for 6 days.)
I will be looking for a new PSU with a +12 1: 48+ A.
OTHER RELEVANT SYSTEM SPECS: ASUS M4N82-Deluxe SLI MOBO, AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+, DDR2 4x2GB 8GB 5-4-4-12 800, 80GB/1TB HDD's,
Getting a 955 BE or a 1090T BE.
PREFERRED WEBSITE(S) FOR PARTS: N/A
PARTS PREFERENCES: Nvidia, so I could use my SLI MOBO BUT ATI is just fine.(My next MOBO may be a CFX.)
OVERCLOCKING: Not on the 64 X2 CPU, but the new one YES. SLI :depends on GPU
MONITOR RESOLUTION: 1680x1050
ADDITIONAL COMMENTS: Truly MAXING out Crysis Warhead.
