    Why would you post this question here?

    How about asking for a new face for your birthday.

    Do not get the 4850, get the 5770.

    It's around your price range too, and it's better than the 4850. I just bought the 5770 XXX Edition.

    Or you can look at the non-OC'd 5770's..

    I have dual 4850s in CrossfireX and they run great. I was considering getting dual 5770s, but I don't know if the performance boost will be that noticeable with the current games I am playing. I might wait for the next "budget" card and get 2 of them.

    I agree, the 5770 is the best bang for the buck right now.

    +2 Go with the 5770. No need in buying a outdated card.
