Almost ready to By ATI 5850

[vegettoxp]

Hello there Guys, I am almost ready to by the ATI 5850 Graphic Card. Either I am gona order it this week or next week, but soon. So far nothing from nvidia and from what I have been reading, nothing BIG is gona come from nvidia. Also One of my biggest reason that I am leaning towards ATI because of the HDMI Port Output. I am planning to get me a 42" to 46" LCD or LED TV and this would be a really good Graphic Card. None of the nvidia cards have HDMI ports Period (Built on Card not adapter)

So I just wanted to get your final Thoughts before I place my order. Is ATI 5850 a Good Choice. Also I have never bought ATI Cards before, But What Brand of ATI 5850 is a Good Product? Thank you for all your help.

On a Side-Note, Can good Recommendation for a SATA Add-On Controller Card?

P.S. Josh

The HD5850 is a very good choice. Just get the cheapest (since most - if not all - of them use ATi's reference design).
