4870 is about 40% more expensive than 4850 at the performance increment of around 15%.
if you have the money, then go for 4870, else get a 4850. the decision is yours. |

IMO, 4850 is sufficient for all of the gaming session for me at least. I'm on 1440*900 anyway
 I would rather to save some bucks and use it for upgrade next time, spending so much on a GC is not really worth to me anymore as when you sell it next time, the value will drop drastically just like my previous 8800gts >.< |
