I suggest this page > http://www.pccasegear.com/index.php?main_p...p;cPath=193_934

Considering the reference stock 5850's are either on par or are outperforming overclocked 285's in dx11 and 10 apps, runs quieter, cooler and is more power efficient than any nvidia equivalent, the entire current nvidia range is a serious waste of money. http://benchmarkreviews.com/index.php?opti...5&Itemid=72

Another thing to consider is there are extreme shortages of the entire 5850> range at the moment, hence the inflated price (which is kind of annoying, especially since some other retailers are sticking to the RRP)
