HIS ATI 6850 or XFX ATI Radeon HD 6850

[Pip3mAn]

Hey guys im building a new rig and i want to know which one of these is better since i dont a sapphire available in my country i only have either XFX or HIS and right now i only have HIS available from where im going to buy it? so which one is better exactly should i buy the HIS one or find an XFX... is there any performance drop in either one of them or are they both the same?

and also im concerned because the HIS card seems to be at the clock speed 775 MHz
also the HIS has:
Max. Resolution 2560 x 1600

and the xfx one is
820 Mhz shouldn't this one be faster?
And the Xfx Has:
Max. Resolution 2048 x 1536

Welcome to the forums.

For any ATI card, between XFX and anything else, my choice is XFX, primarily for build quality and warranty.

The XFX will obviously be a little faster. And don't worry about the difference in max resolution. That is driver dependent, not hardware dependent.

Thanks nice forum. now if by any chance i dont find a XFX is an HIS still a good choice?..

or in that case should i buy a 6770 XFX because that is available.
