I would say the 5850 is a better deal but a better card close to the same price range is the gtx 470 thats what i would go for.

470 is a good deal too, unless power and heat are a problem for you.

Between the two the 5850 is much better. The GTX 470 is a tiny bit better than the 5850, but also costs like $30 more.

5850, the gtx 470 is a tiny bit faster but comsumes alot of power and more heat. You can overclock the 5850 like mad too

If you can still flash the 465 gtx to a 470gtx to turn it into one, then buy that imo.
