"8800GT effect" not with GTX 460, but with GTX 465

[highoctane]

Your point?

I'm not willing to pay that much more for ONLY a 3% performance increase. I'll take the the 5850, overclock it, and keep the $40. That's not including what you'd save on your electricity bill to power and cool the 470.

Its irrelevant to me what hardware you spend your money on nor what you may or may not save on your electric bill I was merely pointing out that your self proclaimed avg price difference was incorrect.

average does not mean minimum, saphire had a 5850 for 290$ and another for 310$, the only thing the 310$ one came with was a free game.

If I wanted to quote minimum mwave had the 470 for $330 when I replied earlier but I was simply quoting what was stock at NE at the time...

Incorrect in your mind maybe, newegg and pricewatch both show an average of $60 more for the 470 for the brands I would buy.

Nice try though...
