So the $80 card scales to beat a 4850 when xfired

That seals the deal for me: Playing WoW, EQ, or LoTR with this will be more than great, and a year from now ill buy the second for ~40-50 and get 3 years of good eyecandy

Without needing a new power supply, more than an x2, or even a single new case fan.

Done and Done!

For all of us who use 19" 1280x1024 and play the above looking at a new build; there is no need to move up to 9600gt, 3870, or even a 8800gt - last years tech and not as good as 2x4670. Buy a 790gx, a 4670, and use all the old parts. Your set to go! Good upgrade paths on CPU, GPU, and raid configs.

Do i sound like a fanboy or what???im not. 

however, 4 months ago before AMD got its A$$ in gear this lvl of gfx was twice as expensive. In fact all the Nvidia parts were more than twice as expensive for the same lvl of performance. Nvidia really does shaft consumers on price when there is no competition. Historically, AMD has done the same, but to a much lesser degree. Go competition! 
okay enough then...



Ebuyer has them at £55 for preorder - that's around half of the £111 for the cheapest 4850.

So far, it looks like a 4670 is slower than a 3850... but thats before overclocking rears its head lol

read the review on anandtech. the 4670 is close to 3870. looks like same specs on paper -but newer generation, 25mhz slower gpu, 200-400mhz slower memory-.

amazing!

So which is it? im looking at getting an $80 and even may step up to the 4850 price, but i really dont want to. What would be better a $80-90 3850 or a $70-80 4670?

thanks in advance
