Yeah, I suspect as soon as you reach the same core clock and if memory bandwidth isn't too scarce - and I don't think a ~70-80GB/s that I get with mild OC on my 4850 is - there won't be any difference at all.
I think I will buy another 4850 - as soon as ASUS will be able to release a in bug-free SmartDoctor to pin my fan to 50% speed.
