ATI Radeon HD 4000 Series discussion

[003]

Before people say OH my God its faster than a 280 gtx, look at the cpu frequency. 4.0 ghz.

CPU doesn't have nearly as large of an effect on vantage as it did in 06 ... especially in the extreme preset. Wow, and a 4850X2 will be even faster due to the shared memory pool. Nvidia is about to get

I loved how they made that statement about how "you only invest in making a top end video card if you know it will be the best", and here they fail, while ATI probably wasn't even TRYING to make a top end video card!

And finally, the score of the GTX280 of X4800 was on the same CPU as this crossfire setup. Says so in the first post of the linked thread.
