Hi All,
I'm planning on building new since my 680i + E6750 just won't cut it for BF3. I'll be building an i5 2500k build in October.
I've been debating internally whether or not I should put the 5850 in the new build and wait for a more substantial upgrade. It doesn't seem like the 6XXX card will be worth the cost for the performance improvement. What are your thoughts?
Also, bear in mind that the current rig will be getting hooked up to the TV in the living room. I would look to put a low end card in it until eventually moving the 5850 over if I use the 5850 in the new build. I'd do the majority of my gaming on the new machine, but I like the idea of having the TV available for certain types of games and for showing off
