Lets take cod4 as an example.

The following all show the 4850 outperform the 9800gtx

computerbase.de - http://www.computerbase.de/artikel/h...call_of_duty_4

guru3d - http://www.guru3d.com/article/amd-at...-powercolor/11

techpowerup - http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/P...HD_4850/6.html

Then these benchmarks show awful performance

pcgh - http://www.pcgameshardware.de/aid,64...k-Test/&page=5

pcper - http://www.pcper.com/article.php?aid...e=expert&pid=3 <--- using heavily oced nvidia cards

The PCGH review clealrly has something wrong with their test system and should be ignored. There are systematic differences throughout their benchmarks. Bioshock being the other game with terrible performance.
lulz, why does it sound like fanboy talk... review is not like it was expected, so ignore it?

maybe you would consider that they use other bench settings (custom time demo etc.) befor saying they are rubish....
