By that time I'd have a Q9*** processor. Somewhere in that line.

Yea.. FX4800 is on the ultra high end side of the product. I believe it's around $1.5kish

Right now I'm thinking GTX480 as a viable option.

NVM. Saw the price of 5970. 

 

 

a Q9*** is going to bottleneck a 480. You would have to go i7 to get full use of that card. I forgot where i saw the artical but they they did benchmarks to show diff cpus with the 5870 and the 480 and everything but the over clocked i5's and the i7's bottlenecked the cards. If i can find it i will post a link in this thread. Also make sure you have a 40 amp rail for those cards.
