There's a huge price difference in the price of the 2 different cards. ATi 4890 go for less than $250 each and last I checked the 285's are still upwards of 350.

So I would go ATi if you're lookinng at more than 2 cards.


thanks. is there any brand that will cover overclocking in the warrenty?


VisionTek has lifetime warranty, 2 285 would surely beat 2 4890 but 4890 is ALOT cheaper.


also im pretty sure you can overclock 4890's to be as fast as 285's
but XFX has double lifetime and covers ocing, i think ill pick those up. Thanks for the input guys.

If you're talking about overclocking the cards, 285 can be overclocked to amazing speeds. 4890 are pretty much overvolted 4870's with better overclocking ability and I guess a die shirnk(I might be wrong on this). Look at my 4870; http://www.techpowerup.com/gpuz/4aq6x/.
