Recently i have been looking for a new card and i am looking at
Newegg.com - MSI R4890 CYCLONE Radeon HD 4890 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards
and
Newegg.com - HIS H577FN1GD Radeon HD 5770 1GB 128-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards
and i am wondering which is better for games such as AION with playing with over 100 people in an army lagging my 8800gt and other High tech games that takes allot of performance.
Any suggestions?

of you want to spend $200, don't get the hd4890, as it isn't one of the newest cards that have all the features of today, such as dx11 and tessellation and eyefinity. take a look at other products from the 5000 series from ati, such as this which is a bit better than a 5770. Newegg.com - SAPPHIRE 100282SR Radeon HD 5850 1GB 256-bit GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFire Supported Video Card w/ATI Eyefinity - Desktop Graphics / Video Cards --bit of a long shot on price but you won't need an upgrade for a couple of years.

wouldn't the cyclone be a big bang for my buck then? give me some links to better ones that are 256bit and under 250$
Apparently i can overclock the cyclone to past 1ghz and its stable also its like equil to the Nvidia 275GT
