yes that does not make any sense. The 5850 and the gtx 460 run very close to each other (slight edge to the 5850, but largely game specific) Tessellation in actual games is going to take a while to catch up to the hardware. So unless you are going to sit around and run 'Heaven 2.0' benchmark set at extreme tessellation ad infinitum, you are going through the protracted ordeal of selling your 5850 at a loss to buy a new gtx 460, and see the same FPS (maybe a few less) and no appreciable difference in your gaming experience. If you're<< ( :wave: Cap) like me...and I know I am [sic] wait at least until the Radeon 6xxx comes out. There is a reason that Metro 2033 went from the next big thing to the discount dump table at Walmart in a few months.
