Just like to say hi .... going to order a new pc in a week or two.But got a prob already
what graphics card, 1GB ATI RADEON™ HD 5850 PCI EXPRESS - DirectX® 11 or 1GB
NVIDIA GEFORCE GTX460 GDDR5 PCI EXPRESS,was going for the ATI,but the 460 seems
to be pretty good,i'm googling now :D

Hey, you're only as old as you feel.

Lol, its really odd the timing of this question.

Its gotta be the 5850 right? That's what the cool kids use. :D

Hi! and welcome!

Problem is it does come down to personal opinion.

I would lean on the GTX 460 as its cheaper and performs about the same.

Both cards are a good choice, but the GTX 460 is £40 - £50 cheaper. If you're ordering an AMD system go ATi, and if you're ordering an Intel system go Nvidia.

Why would you advise on Nvidia for an Intel Cpu?
