9800GTX or 4850?

HD4870X2 is not even out yet...

On topic:

Get the HD4850 simply because it's newer and as ThatGuy16 said, most sites recommend it over 9800GTX. Simple.

Yes the 4870 is out. Here is a link http://www.tigerdirect.com/applicat...1C&cm_mmc=Email-_-Main-_-WEM1651-_-Components

I was being partially sarcastic.I know Hd the 4870 X2 isnt out yet but it might be good to save up for that card.I am thinking it might offer a the best single slot card for awhile kind like the 8800 ultra did when it came out.I wouldnt feel so bad for spending money that is not going to just be bested in a couple months.I think the 8800 ultra had top performance for a 1 1/2 didnt it?

9800GTX @ $200, 4850 @ $170 after MIR. What to choose?
And don't forget 4850 support DirectX 10.1

Ok i know u have already pretty much made up ur mind and i think its a good decision, have a read of this http://www.pcworld.com/article/147628/first_look_amds_ati_hd_4850_gpu.html

The HD4850 is definitely a dam good card, especially for its price.
