Boint wise yes... gaming wise no. 285's are 180+ on completed listings. 260s are cheaper (between 80 and 120) but, 275 is weaker than a 4890 but a substantial margin and still costs more. (150)

if going green, I will go 460. its not much of an upgrade.. and costs twice as much as a 5770... boints are less too thanks to manufacturers making crazy versions that I can not afford LOL. unfortunately, those are new prices and it is too new to get a used one cheaper. (not enough to make me buy used)

That might be what I have to do...


OCM... yea hthe hawk is one of those cards that demands a premium that far out weighs its usefullness. IMHO. I dont have water or GPU pot. so it would be wasted on me :(

TBH I am not sure the 460 is any better. I would rather take my chances modding a $80-95 5770.
