TBH, I don't find any difference while playing Crysis Very High DX10 or Tweaked Very High DX9, I honestly didn't bother to know what technical improvements SM4 brought over SM3, at least I don't notice any visual difference between them...

I know what you mean with the bolded sentence and I agree with you, but if you just want a card to actually play, stick to a HD3870 or 8800GT/S, they are quite enough for gaming demandings, I think...
