    4850x2 VS GTX 260...

    Just wondering should i go for crossfire 4850x2 OR get a single GTX260??

    or wait for 4870 and get that instead? i will be running upto 1600x1200 and hope to get high graphics on games, as id expect from a new card.(though crysis doesnt count,,,,,card killing SOB game...)

    From what i have seen so far this seems to be the way to go mate. Who knows though its all speculation at the moment, wait it out and see what happens

    If your not running games over 1600 x 1200 I would get a single graphics card. Wait for the 4870 and see how it fairs and what price it comes in at.
