It's hard to get direct comparisons, so do you guys think it's a worthwhile, budget, upgrade ? I'm considering a completely new PC next year, but am looking for a boost to the likes of Skyrim until then, without breaking the bank.

Edit - I can also get the Radeon HD 6850 for a little less, on preorder...

My only concern is the fact that my mobo is a 2.0 PCI-E, and the card says it's a 2.1 PCI-E - guess I'll find out in a few days if that's problem...
