what to upgrade to?

[darkpark]

My current video cards are in my sig: 2 hd4870s in crossfire.
I want to upgrade but I'm not sure which way to go. I'm debating between either waiting for the hd5970 to become available or get two hd5850 right now. two 5870s would be a little too much money and i'm not sure if my 750watt power supply would handle that.
what do you guys think?

in case i did want to go with two hd5870s, would a 750 watt psu be enough? i don't plan on over-clocking. my psu is a corsair tx750.

Power supply should be fine.

I believe 5850 cf is pretty close to 5870 cf, even at stock speeds. I would save the $200 and do 5850s. I ran 5870s in cf on my main rig with corsair hx 750, so I say it will be fine.

thanks for the inputs guys. i may wait a few more weeks before deciding. whichever card (either the 5850 or the 5870) goes down in price first, will get the vote.
