    Upgrading Ati3870 to a 5770

    Does anyone know if it will be worth upgrading from a Asus3870 to a Asus5770? For £120 it would appear worth it. Looking to run games on HD telly 1920x1080 I know that some of the newsest games that will not be possable but for games like company of heroes and that sort of era how do you think the card will fair? Any ideas on performance boost in % that I would get by doing this upgrade?

    Cheers for any replys

    Much faster card Will use the same power if not a little bit less than current card. Will run COH, because i have a 4850, and can run it perfectly.

    These are the benchmarks to give you a rough idea.

    Cheers for quick replys. It just confirms what I was almost sure of anyhow. Always good to get a second opinion. Just wanted to be sure about the Asus version and its voltage tweeks.

    I had already actually looked at the exact same benchmarks pitty it does not actually show the 3870, Tho I guess the 3850 is near enough.
