The 6850's managed to handle anything I throw at it on max settings, whilst still getting at least 30 fps (MAYBE LOWER WITH BF3) This card is smaller, and can fit into tighter spots than the bigger 6870 models. IDLE 17 watts. GAMING between 90 and 130 watts USING MODULAR OCZ FATALITY 550 WATT PSU SO MIGHT NOT CROSSFIRE 12GB RAM AMD PHENOM II X3 790 GIGABYTE GA-MA790GPT-UD4P AM3 MOTHERBOARD WIN7 for the price you get a decent card and if buying two then crossfiring will boost it a lot more Radeon HD 6850 x2 A second card requires you to add another ~130 Watts. You need a 650 Watt power supply unit. Eyefinity Active DisplayPort to Single Link-DVI Eyefinity Adapter for 3 monitor displays make sure your rig is well vented and cooled helps a great deal keeping fan speed lower thus less noise. Overall very happy with this card for the priceRead full review

Brought the 6850 because of the performance/price ratio of the card, and discovered the card can be overclocked by nearly 20% quite easily. I'm only using a single monitor at 1920x1080 but I feel the card would struggle on its own if you used multiple. Using it in crossfire at the moment.
This card runs everything i throw at it on high including crysis and battlefield 3 with about 50 fps+ which is great for me. It has a windows experience rating of 7.7/7.9
