i want to get a graphic card from US... main purpose is gaming...
now i was in no plan to buy one but as a freind of mine is coming i want to get one... so the main problem is budget.
i saw 4870X2 with 2gb memory and was impressed... i also saw 4870 which was also looking good to me...
now if someone can guide me as to whcih one to buy and which one is the best value for money... 4870....4870X2.... 4850... or 2 4850 on crossfire
Also do let me know if any gforce card is recomm
Well i want the best value for money as i said...
I would say HD4850X2. It even beats HD4870 and goes neck-to-neck with HD4870X2 and GTX280. Don't ask me how it is possible but that's how it is.
^^^ how much does it cost
get some cooling option too for the gfx card in the same time.
^^^^^^^^ How intellegent guys are answering.... i am asking for the GPU and they are asking me to take a Cooling option...
