Hey guys,
I am confused on what to do.
I am currently in india and i want to buy a graphics card.
Here i can buy a Sapphire Radeon HD 5850 for $400
I can get my friend (who is in the US) to buy me a Sapphire Radon HD 5870 for the same price from there ($400).
He can then send it by mail to me.
But if I buy from there I wont get warranty.
And if something is wrong with the card theres nothing i can do.
So what seems a better option?
Get the 5870 while talking a risk?
Or get the 5850?
And what big a risk is it?

Hey! I just read that the 5870 is a rip-off!
If you buy a 5850 and overclock it to the 5870 clock speeds, then it is as good as the 5870!
Is this true?
