    Hi, Im building gaming pc and wondering what a good graphics card would be. I planned on getting a evga gtx 460 1GB for 164euro or I saw a msi ati 6850 for 152 euro. Which would you get. I will not be over clocking so take that out of the equation.thanks

    the 560 will be out in the next few weeks, the NDA is supposed to lift on the 25th Jan so the cards should be out very soon. I wouldnt make a decision until theyre out.

    But they'll be far to expensive so doesn't really do anything for me

    even if they are they should push the other cards prices down slightly.

    Out of the 460/6850, tbh theres very little difference in performance between those cards, so i would base it on price, whether you want Physx + game profiles or if you want a 3 screen setup sometime.
