9600GT SLI beats 3870X2 in a couple games (inq, expreview)

Ya I guess, it just depends on what site you look at, and how they benchmark.

Even so, to me it's impressive if the 9600GT SLI even ties in any case, seeing as it's meant to be a mid-range card (relative to the rest of the line-up). They've beaten the price of the 3870 down with a stick.

3870 and 9600GT cost the same in Europe and 3870 CF is better than 9600GT SLI. 3850 CF cost even less and OC like a beast

Well they're only $10 apart here in the US, but the 9600GT isn't very far behind the 3870 in most cases, in some cases it's ahead. I think it balances out to just about equal.
