    3dmark isn't too interesting for me.

    Look at the cb-Performancerating, the 2900XT isn't faster in any setting:

    btw: I own an 2900Pro, so I'ld like the idea it could be faster then it's successor, but my eyes tell me otherwise.

    Many have found the XT BIOS to be slower than Pro and have gone back. Memory timings suspected.
