Look at the 4800 series in Frontlines: Fuel of War. 4870 loses to the 260. The X2 ties with the 280 up until 2560.
Look at the 4800 series in GRAW 2. The 4870 and 4870 X2 loses completely.

The 4800 series cannot seem to thoroughly beat the 200 series consistently in games that require PhysX driver to be installed (that were included in the reviews). I call that a trend.
1fps is hardly a loss (what's the margin of error?), so 4870 and 260 are equal and considering that the 4800s don't support physx I wouldn't say the 260 is doing better.. it's better in frontlines but only by a few and wins at 2560. Also I guess the 280 and X2 are bottlenecked at res lower than 2560 so we're not sure it's a tie.

OT: guru3d's graphs are confusing different shades of blue that switches with each test, they can do much better.
