hi all,
ive narrowed down my choice of graphics cards to either a nvidia gtx 260 or a ati 4870. which would be the best for playing relatively up to date games?
the rest of my spec is as follows:
AMD phenom 2 x4 955 3.2 ghz
Asus M3N78-AM motherboard
4gb ram
any opinions appreciated. the nvidia is cheaper by 10 quid and i cant see any real difference in the performance?

If you get a GTX 260 make sure you buy the "Core 216" model.

260 C216's are faster, but the C192 one's are a little slower than the HD4870.
