i don't think it will be worth it since 5850 is behind 6870 by 5-10% so you will get about 10-20% increase, save your money on 7870 at least

A 6950 2GB will definitely handle Diablo 3 on max everything (even extreme settings, if blizzard releases) without any problems at any resolution assuming you have a nice CPU to go with it.

I'm basing it on Anandtech's review. Though I admit the reviews are dated and at the time i remember people claiming the Fermi would perform better once the drivers matured.

Very nice deal, but I'd rather spend a few extra $$ and grab a 7850 which has massive OC potential (1200+ on the core is common).
That, or wait for the 660ti rumored to be released on May 10th.
