Currently on a 4870X2.
It replaced my dead 8800GTX.
But upgrading all depends on playing games at 1920x1200, if it can't cope anymore, or DX11 has reached the mainstream then I'll upgrade.
Atm I've no problem with anything, that said I've no interest in Metro.
At this rate I'll probably be waiting for the new cpus and mobos also. :p:

I think the real killer is the performance per watt...

well, yeah, after reading the conclusion and overall performance charts from some of the reviews in the review-thread it seems that the gtx480 sits right between the 5870 and 5970. 10-15% faster than 5870, 10-15% slower than 5970.
huge letdown, tbh, especially due to the high power consumption :(
anandtech review seems up yes, but has trouble loading :D
ot edit, so rumours are confirmed, hot,marginally faster and expensive.
*starts saving for the gtx485*
OCUK want £448 for a gtx480! US$667!
5970CF so you are talking about QUAD GPU, ya I never said that. However 5870CF a fair comparison does lose if that is what you intended to mean. You don't have to take my word for anything I've been in this thread the entire time and read every single post and looked at all the numbers. It is a known fact that SLI does provide a better multi-GPU experience vs CF there are only rare cases that CF is better if an SLI profile isn't available or optimized.
Why do all these review sites use terrible servers?
Not bad, got it exactly 1 minute after being posted.
