IDK if you're clearly biased or such a huge Nvidia fanboy or an uber rich dude who only care about performance and demand the best but your statements don't make any sense at all. First you compare the GTX 280 which is a high end video card to a performance HD4870 then you start making assumption about Nvidia next card like the GTX280GX2 (I got one for you right below, maybe you're the only one who can afford that) and blah blah blahOriginally Posted by ceevee
You guys are hilarious. I care about performance only. Show me a battery of tests (10+ tests) that show that either:
4870 > GTX280 on average
or
4870CF > GTX280SLI on average
You won't because there aren't any. You may be able to point to one or two red herrings where that is the case. However if you average the results across many many games GTX280 still owns 4870 and SLI scales better across more games than CF currently does.
You guys remind me of the HD DVD fanboys who said HD DVD was better because it was cheaper. (we all know how that eventually turned out)
I don't care if you think AMD is more "efficient". Power consumption and heat say otherwise anyway.
Show me the FPS.
Pls keep in mind that not everybody here have the money to spend like you, yeh sure you can get 2xGTX 280 and pwns the HD4870 in CF but considering the GTX 280 is about 13% faster than the HD4870 but with more than twice the price, is it really worth it?
Dunno if it's legit or not but it seems 2xHD4870X2 can beat GTX 280 in Tri-SLI.
