my understanding is that nvidia had some troubles implementing the GDDR5 mem controller and that is why none of thier new cards can match the mem speeds of ATI. that is also why they use a wider mem bus

i think using the high speed ram on current nvidia cards is a waste, but i'm glad they're trying to eek out additional performance where possible
