LOL @ the Nvidia fanboys... Ceevee etc.
2x HD4870 is a perfect and fair comparison to a single GTX 280. First of all 2x HD4870s are cheaper than a single GTX 280 and not to mention, in half of the cases, 2x HD4870s destroys 2x GTX 280s.
HD4870 is definitely the best card for the price.
Read'em and weep Nvidia fanboys!
http://www.anandtech.com/video/showdoc.aspx?i=3341&p=23A pair of Radeon HD 4850s can come close to the performance of a GeForce GTX 280, and a pair of Radeon HD 4870s are faster across the board - not to mention that they should be $50 less than the GTX 280 and will work on motherboards with Intel-chipsets. Quite possibly more important than the fact that AMD's multi-GPU strategy has potential is the fact that it may not even be necessary for the majority of gamers
Time to ditch the ****ty nvidia chipsets for Intel chipsets and pick up 2 HD4870s!
