You guys are really under rating the 3870X2...

In alot of games ( besides Crysis ), its beating the Ultra quite alot...

If the GTX280 really is twice as fast as the 3870X2 without the pain in the ass that is crossfire/sli, then its a huge improvement imo..

A single card that is twice as fast as the Ultra, what do want?

Guys expecting it to be much faster ( 50% ) than a 9800gx2 in games that scale well are crazy imo...
