Hello,
This is my first time asking in here. Recently i upgrade my cpu, from athlon 7750 BE to core i5 3470 (i'm using Asrock z77 pro3). I think its a very great upgrade, everything is so fast and responsive with this new cpu. But now my graphic card cannot keep pace with my new cpu. I had HD4850, i bought it from 2009. I'm thinking to upgrade my graphic card. But hey, when i look at the 4850 price now, its very cheap, only $65-$70. If i buy a new card like 7850 or 7850, i cant afford it with my current budget (i'm student, and must saving to slowly upgrade my rig). SO, it is good choice to buy new 4850 card and crossfire it with my old card? Or should i save my money to buy new card in 2 or 3 months?
and, if i buy 4870 rather than 4850 to crossfire it, is there will be a noticeable performance increase?
Thank you very much for helping me here
