So this card performs evenly with an 8800 GT and costs up to $50 more. :down:
Up to $70 if you include rebates. But apparently, it also performs evenly with the 9800 gtx...at least with the PCPer tests.Quote:

then you are saying 8800GT > 9800GTX and
8800GT SLI > GTX 280
Choose your words correctly, this is one fast card, but yes, as is the 8800GT :)

There you go. I think people are just saying the 8800GT is a much much better bang for the buck with almost 4850 performance at 2/3th the price.Quote:

...not so much this one however.
Point the fact that Iin Tweaktown review 280GTX from Zotac is an overclocked card 700 core /1400 shaders/2200 memory instead of 600/1300/2200 :rolleyes:
Wow oh wow X__X
These cards are the budget builder's heaven. I'm now waiting for the micro stuttering of death threads.
Big question now [for me at least] is min FPS 2 4850 and 1 4870.

I know of no higher overclocked 8800GT from BFG, this is their "best of the best". Impressive... Looks like no highly OC nv card(s) are going to hamper the 4800 series so far.Quote:

I would go 4870. life is too short for CF/SLI if you dont have some wierd S/M fetish. Or just wanna bench it.Quote:

Thanks for the link Motiv
Looks like 4xAA is when the card really starts to fly and pulls away from the G92's

Tweaktown's review isn't .. biased .. gasp!
Some 4850 vs 4870 numbers, not sure if they're real though.
