is this a good deal ? i'm thinking about buying it to replace my 5850 card.

looks like a great deal.

Do you get a 10 year warranty from evga on recerts?

Limited 90 Day: -RX (Recertified parts)

The non-recert one is 314AR.

I got my 570 new for $280 AR not too long ago. Depends on if you need it now and trust a refurb video card... but IMO the extra $20 is worth it for getting it new with proper warranty. I've seen either MSI or eVGA 570s get below 300 several times in the last 4 months.

Is 570 vs 480 = even?

 

[qliveur]

Roughly, yes.

I've read that the 480 gets better minimum frame rates, though; probably due to the higher memory bandwidth/more ROPs.

Then the 580 sounds like a better upgrade for me.
