Hello, I was just wondering what the best bang for buck would be for a 1600x900 resolution. I'd like to max things out as much as possible without spending a butt load of dosh. I was thinking about getting a 6850 for a little over a $100 (can get one for 120 after a 15 mir atm) when one went on sale, or paying a little more for a 6870. The other thought I had enter my head, was waiting for the 660ti or whatever it is to drop next month and hope the 7850/7870 price would dive a little bit. Thoughts? Recommendations?
Here's my current specs btw:
AMD Phenom II X4 955 BE (C2, not yet OCed, but I got a 212+ so that I could try to bump it to 3.6+ when I upgrade the gpu)
G.Skill 16GB Ripjaws at 1300 9cas (just bought recently, spent more than I should have, going to bump to the 1600 its specified for eventually, or just tighten timings)
Gigabyte GA-MA770T-UD3P mobo
1024MB GeForce 9800 GT
488GB Hitachi SATA II 3.0GB/s
PC Power and Cooling Silencer Mk II 750W (also bought recently and spent more than I should have, but its a nice psu for 70 after mir, and I'm hoping with a 7 year warranty I can use it for a long time to support any upgrades I make)
Thanks in advance!
Edit: Also been kinda thinking about buying a 560ti if one hits a nice low price. PhysX would be nice, but would an AMD card run better with an AMD cpu?
