i "have to" buy a new computer every year. i am putting together an x58 build to replace my 775 build last year. i was looking at "upgrading" from my xfx 4890 to xfx 5850 as it seems the 5850 is slightly better (http://www.anandtech.com/bench/Product/175?vs=164. i don't care that it's a little louder, or power hungry, cost is not an issue, but I'd rather not spend it if I'm not going to notice a difference...BUT since I mainly use my pc for Call of Duty, email/internet, photo editing, NO video editing, SHOULD I UPGRADE or just transplant the XFX 4890? thanks in advance!!!
