AMD to Give RV770 a Refresh, G200b Counterattack Planned

[Carfax]

My evidence just prove that 4870 oc with improve cooling are less expensive than 260GTX even 192. That the point! Gainward 4870 GS in particular is less expensive than 260GTX. So deny this review because of 4870 GS price it's stupid.
4870 GS is cherry picked? Ok, now you know the card we have to buy

Well the problem I had with that review was that it made it seem as if the HD 4870 scaled well in ALL games, when the truth is in fact more complicated.

Also the memory overclock on that GTX 260 was crappy. Most cards seem good for at least 1250 on the memory, which will give you a bandwidth of about 140 GB/S, matching the GTX 280.

Take this review for instance, where the GTX 260 is overclocked to 694/1496/1285, a 20% overclock on the core and a 28% overclock on the memory.

And then compare it to this one. The HD 4870 is overclocked to 855/1100, a 14% overclock on the core and 33% on the memory.

Look at the scaling between the two cards in both reviews.

The GTX 260 not only has a higher overclock (with the exception of the memory), but it also SCALES BETTER IN THE GAMES.

I think the low memory overclock in your review hampered the core from optimal performance. Old drivers also made it look subpar in comparison to the HD 4870 (not the reviewer's fault of course.)
