Is the HD 3850 a good investment? I dont want to buy this cards and be mad I bought it 1 year later. I was thinking about buying one to start off with then later i will crossfire them. So my question is should I buy this card or go for a more expensive card like an 8800GT or a HD 3870?

hd3850 is best all around it's price range so it won't be a bad idea buying it.

Just out of interest, would this PSU be able to cope with it?
