    Default ATI card question

    hey,

    I'm upgrading my computer this summer and decided to go with an ATI card. for my price range i would prefer the 5830 or 5850. currently i have two nvidia 7800 overclocked variants with water cooling, and quite frankly the drivers for controlling dual cards are getting to be a pain since i like playing older games, but need the higher graphics power for school and games. i noticed the 50 has lower core speeds but more parallel processing inside. does that that make much of a difference (I'm also hooking the new card to the existing water cooling system i have).

    thanks for any help.

    well, you can wait for the gtx 470 with a factory solution on the water cooling. EVGA is going to launch those.

    you can also get the blocks from dd, I think that they retail around 70-110

    and yes do yourself a favor and get the 5850 the 5830 is not as good
