    Upgrading from a 4890?

    Drat. I was hoping they'd be sitting around so I could take one off your hands. :p
  2. Q

    Upgrading from a 4890?

    My motherboard is awful for overclocking, as the MOSFETs apparently tend to overheat, so I haven't bothered, nor will I bother to, overclock my processor. Do you still have the 4890s?
  3. Q

    Upgrading from a 4890?

    My budget is abysmally low right now (<$100). I was really just looking for an idea of what's on the market, but I didn't feel like putting in all the research I did the last time I bought a card.

    Upgrading from a 4890?

    I don't pay for electricity! And I won't for years! So bah!
  5. Q

    Upgrading from a 4890?

    Alright, thanks for all your help. I don't think I'm quite prepared to drop another $200 on a card right yet, but I now have this thread as reference for when I am. I'm deeply saddened by the fact that the card I payed ~$190 for a little over a year and a half ago now has half the value.

    Upgrading from a 4890?

    Alright, thanks! I'm gonna try and snag a 4890 for <$75 because I am poor at the moment, but if I manage to get a job, before then, I'll probably look at the 6xxx series. What are the equivalents for Nvidia cards? I really don't keep up with them at all.
  7. Q

    Upgrading from a 4890?

    My goal is to spend as little money as possible. I've read that 4890s in CF perform slightly better than a 5850 on average. Can anyone attest to that?
  8. Q

    Upgrading from a 4890?

    Firstly, hello everyone! Secondly, I am looking to upgrade from a 4890. What would give me the most bang for my buck? I play at 1920 x 1080, and am looking for a bit of a bump up, as newer games are starting to slow down. I was looking at a 4890 CF, because 4890s can be had for pretty cheap...
