Vista - So the 5000 series are here... i have a question

hi i have a 4870 in my pc and im hopin to get a 5850 or something soon but idk what i should do with my old 4870 like can istill use it for anything? maybe for another monitor? or would 2 different monitors on 2 different cards be not possible? anyways i bought that card for like 250 and have loved it ever since and dont wanna sell it. just what can i do with it? (planning to buy a new montior fo dual display soon too)

Sell it while it still has some value to help offset the cost of the new card.

And no you don't need two cards to run two monitors, you would be hard pressed to find a card made in the last few years that can't run dual monitors.

hm...... sell it... but get the 5870 instead of the 5850.......
or if you don't want to sell it you could always mail it to me.... haha

ehh dunno is there really nothing i would be able to put the old 4870 to use for?

If you get a 5850 or 5870, short of being able to run 4 monitors, no there is nothing you can do with the 4870.

agreed..... unless you just want to mount it on the wall
