ATI Radeon HD 4000 Series discussion

dunno, but is it possible that the HD-4870 will get slowed down by the HD-4850? if this is true buying another HD-4850 would make more sense.

Snip, nevermind, benchmarks = confusing.

The first ones I saw showed good performance from a mixed 3850 and 3870, but this one shows it is bad:

I'm going to hunt for the one I saw a couple of weeks ago....

In some games like bioshock though, there is very little difference:

But in a lot of games there is a big difference.
