Theres no such thing as future proofing in computers. Better to get something cheaper now, then something better in 6 months than spend loads now, and have something sub standard to what you could have bought in 6 months time. ;)

But mind you, its only a £50 price difference. So if you want to get a 4890, its not exactly breaking the bank. ;P]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[Why not get an HD4890/HD5770?

the Asus site doesn't list Phenom II on it's support list for the M2N.
nForce 430 is AM2 instead of AM2+ as well.
So either you get a new motherboard as well, or maybe you can find a cheap Opteron somewhere.]]></description>

    	    <description><![CDATA[yup, +1 a 4870 then. ;)

Also, may want to consider a new CPU. Your current CPU will definately be bottlenecking a 4870.

Honestly, don't bash ATI, the whole Nvidia vs ATI arguements are silly, take it on a card vs card basis. ;)]]></description>
