    First would be budget. Wait? It doesn't matter? Ok then get the one that performs better. ATI 4870.

    You might want to take a look at 4870 x2...

    @DrE, sir, u think (1) 4870 performs better than (2) 4850s on crossfire?
    i know a lot of reviews between the two can be found on the net but I just want to know your personal opinions.

    thanks for your replies!

    the reviews are a better source of info than my opinion kay I dont own any of those cards. I would also suggest looking at the x2 versions of those cards but since you only asked between the two, gilimit rasad nako ako choice. The 4850 crossfire is by no means a bad buy/performance compared to the 4870. Both are good cards. Its just a matter or budget cap nalang ang deciding factor for me.

    additional:
    Depending on how you read it it could mean 4870 vs 4850 crossfire (both), since you put a (1) and (2) it becomes clear na. I read it wrong.

    your P45 board is not ideal for crossfire... you have to first upgrade your board to X48... pwede ra pud ang X38, either nila, capable of 2 16x nga pcie slots... while ang imong mobo is only one 16x pcie and the other is 8x... limited ang bandwidth sa isa... therefore, mas hinay imong crossfire, whether 4870 or 4850...

    after upgrading your mobo... then choose two 4870 for crossfire... labi na kung dako kaayo imong monitor gamiton... mas effective and ddr5 sa 4870 when it comes to high resolutions... if money is not a problem, then go for the extreme... buy two 4870X2's
