I plan on upgrading from my ATI 4670 (and giving it to my roommate) and I'm not sure what I should get. My budget is about $150.
My current specs are:
Pentium Dual Core E6300 2.8ghz
MSI G31TM-P21
HIS HD 4670 512mb GDDR3
2gb DDR2 800mhz (will have 4gb eventually)
CoolMax 600watt
Windows XP 32-bit
This is what I"m looking at:

I need to know which is better for the price and if I will experience any bottleneck.
Last link is the better one of them all, if possible find the 1gb version
oops it's not a 5770, hahaha
Buy from Newegg.com
And get this:[url]http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16814102864[/url]

It's better than all of those.
ok I'll get the 4770. I stated this in other threads, I can't order from Newegg since no matter what they deny my credit card. but I'll trying ordering it with a Visa gift card. I just linked Fry's since there are two by where I live and it's just easier for me to go there and get it.
ghostofme has got what you need, if that visa card works
4850 ([url]http://www.frys.com/product/5944684?site=sr:SEARCH:MAIN_RSLT_PG[/url]) is the best for the money, 4770 is slightly worse than it
hm, and it's cheaper too..

You can send Newegg a check. It's how I pay for my shit.
just realized that the 4850 cheaper than the Frys and Newegg 4770

I don't mail checks, I almost lost $100 that way. Was damn lucky I got my money back.

Well that's a pretty rare event. I've sent hundreds of dollars through the mail and haven't lost a penny.
But it's your choice. Whatever works best for you.
I play my games at 1440x900 btw

Grab that 4850 and OC then.
ok, it's decided. I'm getting the 4850 in a week or two. thanks guys.
not much of an upgrade...
accord to benchmarks it is.

well, if isn't much of an upgrade then what is? keep in mind my budget is $150, I can't spend more than that.
i would go with 5770/5750 but your choice.
Try stretch to a 4870/5770 IMO.
5770 is pretty darn good :) You would notice the difference.
