No point in that as 4850x2 is almost as fast as the GTX285 and is significantly faster than both 4890 and gtx275.However if you have to buy one of these then gtx275 for 13.5k is definitely the better deal.

+1

and i suppose GTX 275 is faster and cooler than 4890.. wil check reviews and will update this post

You can't go wrong with either of them. Though Power consumption, Heat and noise levels will be high on 4850X2.

go with either GTX 275 or 4890.. Have look on 4890 1Ghz aswell..

i have an almost similar query.. if you dont mind anks

What is better 4870 Crossfire or a single GTX 275 ?

 

[SidhuScorpion]

he has 1GB version, only 512/core, not enough for 24" IMO. Single 4890 OCed will be way better, 4890 OCed beats 285 OCed editions

@ Anish 4870 CF better

GTX275 is a great card, but the only thing which would make me avoid a gtx275 is its powerconsumption at load, its just too much and doesnt justify the performance per watt, would rather stick with a gtx260 216sp in that case

why dont u go for the gtx280s..they are available for under 250 $ nowadays...

^ 275 n 280 have same load numbers. Only 285 has lower TDP. 275 is 15W less @ idle.

n both perform similar also, check not even 1FPS differance

GTX 275 has exhibited a very good performance even where HD 4890 falls. RConsidering HD 4850X2 is not advisable as it has poor driver support and have some heating issues coupled by a few problems which have been heard now and then. Well go for GTX 275 it is really a nice card.

 

[hellgate]

get the GTX 275 m8.its a gud card u wont regret buying it.

 

[GunnerMania]

4890 should be your choice if you r gonna keep using it for long enuff. If your plan is to upgrade in the next 4-5 months, then go for the gtx 275 now.

cheers.

4890 is marginally faster at resolutions 1600 X 1200 and below, and GTX 275 is marginally a winner about 1600 X 1200.

4890 review by Shripad sir will be out soon- some neat revelations/shockers imho- wait for it.

 

[Aniruddh]

If i were to buy between these to cards then i would have surely gone for GTX275.
