Wrong. 4890>4870>GTX 260.

That q9550 if its a E0 will have no trouble hitting 4ghz, Sythe mugen 2 or DK would be perfect for cooling it. I use the mugen and its amazing. Set up looks fine but thought i should mention, odds of you hitting 4ghz with the amd 955 chip are pretty slim without water or a golden chip.

Okay, everyone who has ATI is supporting 4870 and everyone with Nvidia prefers 260, obviusly.

Although reviews of these cards with similiar system to mine are welcome.

What's the chance any game will use full 1GB of 4870?

Comments about Memory really isn't necessary, I'm changing it in no time.

Good you don't know how small my LCD is ...
i would just get a HD4890 or wait till the 5870s come. 4890s are 200 bucks if you cna spare the extra 30 to 40 get the 4890
