is the new radeon hd 3850/70 at good upgrade or should I just go for the 8800gt? does the 256mb vram hurt the 3850s performance over the 512mb the other cards have? I'd be looking at something that can run crysis decently @1280x1024 preferbly (native resloution)

The hd3850/70 and 8800gt are worthy upgrades from the 7800gt they have almost 2-3 times the performance.

256mb will do nicely on 1280x1024.
