HEXUS's priceing is way off, or at least EU prices are screwed up. 40% more than a 5870? What the hell? It's more like 20% from everything I see here.
Do you live in a sawmill/coalmine/bingo hall?
man, just by looking at that photo I'm sneezing
Holy crap. Look at all that dust!Quote:

Drivers are beta or very immature. You must compare those results very carefully.
i haven't been following the fermi rumors too much since neither the gtx4xx or hd5000 series will be a worthwhile step up from my gtx260, but if this is true and this trend continues, I may be buying an ati card again. That hasn't happened since my 1900xtx. :D
Awesome benchmarks! Im gonna pick a GTX 480 As soon as i can :)
even with all that dust, i'm sure that 5870 is cooler than the FERFAIL.
might want to wait until you see other games too, things are worse than what you get from Hexus reviewQuote:

LOL...twice a year. I have to clean mine out every month. Two dogs and a cat will literally leave a fur ball in my case if I don't clean it out.Quote:

Would be nice to still see the Folding at home (PPD) numbers.
LOL, yeah only twice a year and I live in West Texas, its like a dust storm here today and we use swamp coolers(evap.). My cases are all kept off the floor though, that makes a HUGE difference.Quote:

I'm not surprised considering you have a Noctua AV. Perhaps we should also buy a $300 Lian Li case and a nice $500 custom sleeved power supply and call it a day...Quote:

Wow you got your work cut out tongiht, hope nVidia are paying for your coffee supplies as well mate.Quote:

Sorry if this is going off topic, just curious :)
