8800gt is much better than a 3870. as for 4850, preliminary info show it's comparable to 9800gtx at ~$230-$250 at launch. Might be worth waiting as if those are true, 8800s and 9800s are likely to go down in price a little. Though I'm not sure if you'll see much better than 8800gt for $130ish after rebate.
