Hd 5850/5870

I'm still torn between those two cards.

To me, the 5870 seems like an overclocked version of the 5850. (I'm probably wrong)

I'm definitely getting them because of the DX11 support, just to be ready for anything, for a while.

I hate using my 8500GT, everything 800x600, it's disgusting.

ANYWAYS.

Yeah, what do you think of the two?

The 5850 is a better contender though, looking at the price.

I would just like to know the difference, performance-wise, between the two.
