Microstuttering tests on ATI Radeon HD 4870 X2

[Aberration]

it's not worth it compared to the 4870x2.

How do we know that for certain?

There have only been a few very limited tests. I wont be in the market for a few months due to travel, so I will wait until it is all tested very well.

I own a GTX280 and I've seen and played with a 4870. that said with how well 4870 Xfire works which has already been tested and the 4870x2 being close if not better than 4870 in Xfire I'm confident that the 4870x2 can easily smash the GTX 280. The last ATI card I owned was a 9800 pro and it was nice but it had problems. ATI has seriously come a long way in the past year and I think people need to put their old feelings about ATI behind them because the only way nvidia can beat the 4870x2 is with a new card.

The biggest problem at the moment with the GTX 280 is the high temp issues and I've already RMAed my card once and I'm stuck with yet another GTX 280 that has 105C load temps.
