id save some money and buy a phenom ii 955 and save money and buy a radeon 5850 vs a 5870, the diff in performance on the 50 and 70 is marginal...
You're right the difference between the 955 and 965 is minimal. You can achieve the same performance from overclocking the 955 to 965 levels. I don't think he wants to do that. I've never done it as well. It's only like 10 bucks more anyways. The 5850 and 5870 do have a fairly large margin and if he has the money, he should get it. It's a great card.
