I'm about to upgrade my computer, as my HD 2900 XT 512's are getting really long in the tooth. For 1920 x 1200, it seems my best option is the HD 4870 1GB, which I can get for about 320$ CAD AR (which is really good considering how much the Canadian dollar has slumped )
I was wondering... How bottlenecked would this card be on my system? I plan to OC my E6600 to 3.2 (8 * 400) or 3.6 (9 * 400) when I get it. Any thoughts?
My next planned upgrade after this 4870 is a Q9550. I wonder if I'll see a decent increase when I get around to dropping that in..?
Thanks for your anticipated help.
