My rig:
ASUS P5Q Deluxe
ATi 4890 1Gig
Q6600 QUAD CPU 2.4GHz (stock)
4 Gigs Ram
Vista 64 bit
1920x1200
I'm asking this cause I always game at 1920x1200 with maxed settings, which is usually great. But as soon as I pump up the AA on those kind of settings it gets laggy, understandable I guess. I'm playing RE5 right now and with my native res, maxed settings and AA only on x2, the FPS hovers around 40 during the action.
I don't know if it's a good example or not but basically I want a high FPS with the way I prefer to max out games lol. So do you think the 5870 is a solid upgrade for me or should I wait for a further generation. Or perhaps just wait for a price drop? I just hope those cards don't get really hot. My 4890 idles at 50 and maxes out at 65-70 with 30-40% fans.
