    hmm. I think those of us buying these are more concerned with overclocking them and playing games.

    I agree

    who cares much about 10% less of cpu sucking with one card compared to another? these are designed as gaming cards for gamers rather than hd decoding dedicated cards
    8800 GT has good game results, overclocking, and runs cool, that's all what interests me.
    though, it's a good argument to keep fighting with amd on its battlefield, limited to video decoding atm

    I noticed you said card runs cool. I agree....
    i'm not sure what those ss showing 90 c were from or what airflow was the culprit inside the case but i've been running fan at 100% and ati tool artifact checker for over a hlaf hour now and I can say my gpu temps never went past 63c on the stock cooler.
