Debating between getting a 4870 vs. a 3870 for a previous Gen Mac Pro. Will I get much benefit for going with the 4870 in Aperture and FCE?

Thanks!

The 4870 should smoke the 3870.

Unless there is a driver problem, but ATI is pretty good with Apple drivers.

The only reason the 8800GT was slower than the 3870 was the drivers, that card should of rocked.
