Currently have an an ip pro 35 and a GeForce 8800gt was thinking of upgrading to a ati6850 but would this be ok with this motherboard. Am also running a Q600 processor.
 
IF you could upgrade to the 6870 its a slightly better card for not much more, oddly enough you could get away with a 5870 which is cheaper then the 6850 and out performs it.

EDIT: What PSU are you using?
 
finding a 5870 don't look good. Only seems to sell 2nd hand and for a lot more than the 6850
 
I see, maybe its been discontinued. Not sure when you plan on upgrading but the 7000 series of cards are meant to be getting released soon too. I'm not sure when and dont know much about them but maybe someone else can chip in here with more info. BTW, what resolution do you game at?
