Aspire- That is sexy.

In regards to the graphic card ratings, I'm surprised to see how high the 4850X2 is. I guess I haven't really looked at many reviews of it. Costs the same as a 4890.
 
Hey yeah good point, but then again i would rather have a 4890 anyday, not worth the heat and driver problems. Have you seen the overclock on those things! they reached 4800mhz on the ram and 1ghz on gpu in the review i read, and that was just using CCC imagine how much further you can push it.
 
In a few cases the 4890 can beat the GTX280 but in most it matches or loses. Not enough to call it better, but its almost as good and gives the GTX280 a hard run for its money. Driver updates may make it better.
 
In the anandtech review which used the newest drivers for both cards at launch time the the HD 4890 wins every game at 1900x1200 and 1680x1050 except Age of Conan. Considering that they tested 7 games and the two resolutions the HD 4890 wins 12:2.

In my opinion winning 12:2 is abut as clear cut a result as you are going to get.
