BTW a hd 3870 has 320stream processors, the hd 48xx cards have 800

ATI 4850s are around $150. They will outperform anything in your list. In linux they will perform slightly better then a 3870, which is terrible if you consider its potential but its good enough for me, driver upgrades should fix the problems.
