    Sorry, yes I did, typo on my part.

    As for it being cheaper, only for you with your free delivery offer, for everyone else, it's a full ten quid less at PCBuyit.

    I'd far sooner pay the extra for an HD4870X2, or the less for a 4870, despite how cheap that is, tbh.

    REALLY??

    the 4870X2 is about 20% better, yet costs around £100-£130 more.

    the 4870 costs around £50-£60 less. at 1920, i would go for the GTX280

    HD4870X2 (stock) vs GTX280 (overclocked version), tested at 1920x1200, 2560x1600 - max settings, AA applied in some tests
    COD4: 45%, 40%
    GRiD: 55%, 115%
    WiC: 50%, 40%
    GRAW2: -9%, -20%
    LP:C: 3%, 16%
    HL2E2: 45%, 55%
    Crysis: 40%
    Oblivion: 40%, 40%
    AC: 4%, 25%

    Average performance boost: 30%, 39%.

    A bit more than 20 then, eh?
