This is my rig:
E6550 @ 2.8ghz
4 GB DDR2 PC6400
Gigabyte p35-ds3l rev 2.0 motherboard
Enermax 485 watt PS
Chaintech 8800GT
Samsung 22" LCD (1680 x 1050 resolution)
Windows 7 64-bit
Main games I play are Silkroad Online, Everquest 2, and now Aion.
I've noticed annoying stuttering in aion so was thinking it was time to upgrade. I generally always skip a generation or 2 before upgrading when I have to, so my question is with the price drops, would a HD 4890 be a worthwhile upgrade at my resolution now, or should I wait for 5890 or Nvidia 300 series to make a decision?
P.S. I never spend more than 250 on a video card ever, generally its $150-250 range whatever gives me most for the money.
