    This post was for my friend whowanted to know because he already has one 9800gt and is thinking about 2. Would one 4890 beat 9800gt sli?

    GTX 275. If he can spend an extra 30 dollars he can get a good GTX 275. Or otherwise wait until it gets cheaper. Otherwise an HD 4890 would be great.

    nvidia fan or not he should still get an HD4890, the GTX275 is still too much more expensive to be worth buying.
