Do you really need the extra cache and are you into overclocking? If you don't need the extra cache and into OC, I would suggest amd x2 5000 black edition. the multiplier is unclocked and you can get to 3.2Ghz just by changing the multiplier. If you can wait, ATI mainstream card is just around the corner. The rumours suggest it's performance should be close to 2900xt. the price is cheap too.
