Urgent :) 4890 vs 5830 which?

[RussianSensation]

In metro 2033 the 5770 can actually outperform a 4890 though I'm not sure how or why.

Actually both 5770 and 4890 choke in Metro 2033, with 5830 OCed running circles around them:

An overclocked 5830 is almost as fast as the 5850 in that game.

If you not ordering till next wek ,you might want to wait till July 12 and check out the gt 460 card comming out.
Should be at least 5830 speeds for 225$,and run cooler and quieter then any Nvidia direct x 11 card on the market.

Nah I'm good with waiting. I'll spend low $ now and upgrade later. It's only cause I don't hardly have part time work at the moment, been getting some through temp agency but nothing real consistent. So I'm working with the $ I got. I'll still be able to enjoy the games I've missed out on (a lot: http://steamcommunity.com/id/phait/wishlist )
