I have a GTS 450 and looking to upgrade, Should I buy the AMD HD 6870 or wait for the HD 7850, I have been eyeing this http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814150561 card which can be had for $160/$140 AR on a good weekend. I have read the reviews for the HD 7850 and I don't see a big improvement except 5-10 FPS here and there and I was planning on buying the 1gb version which would offer performance on par with the 6870 since the reviews are for the 2gb version. I play PC games but am not an avid Gamer but I do enjoy a card that offers plug and play functionality with my Hackintosh.
