im planning on building a new pc but i dont know which graphic card to get...a hd4850 or 9800gtx+
i saw an inno3d 9800gtx+ for £134 which makes it just a little more expensive than the hd4850 so wot would you people say?

Not worth it, they perform very similarly. The HD4850 is the better card to get.

Either or. It depends on your tastes. If you like Nvidia go with the 9800 if you like ATI go with the HD4850.

Which ever you choose make sure you have a big cas as both cards are huge.

Go with the HD4850.

Also the 4850 is way smaller than a 9800GTX. I'm assuming a 9800GTX+ is not SMALLER than the slower 9800GTX.

I highly doubt it... hehe
If you're willing to spend a bit more than the cost of a 4850, for £172 including delivery you can get an HD4870 from ebuyer, and they are superb, I can tell you.
