Dude back on page 3 i informed you that the vanilla single slot coolers are terrible and run very hot, if you want a HIS card, go with this one, better cooling and cheaper win- win.

This powercolor card actually has ramsinks unlike the saphire or HIS.

What brand 4850 should i get???????

Sapphire or Msi is all im interested in.
The Sapphire HD4850 is a steal at $110. I think the promo code ends today though so you might want to jump on it (although there have been a lot of HD4850 deals lately so there will be another one shortly I'm sure). Here's my earlier post with the link:

to OP: the 4850 is one level up from 9800GT. 9800GT = 4830
