Whoa, hold up a second! You guys are jumping to conclusions before you even examine the evidence!

First off, I'm pretty sure thats the old GTX 260, so it's already slower than the HD 4870 at default clocks, let alone the "golden sample."

Secondly, the guy that did the review didn't state whether he had overclocked the shaders or not. He only said he set the core to 720 and the memory to 1185.

Increasing the core and memory speed while leaving the shaders untouched would cripple the overclock!

Thirdly, in some of the games, the GTX 260 manages to scale as you would expect it to given the overclock. In CoD4 for example, you get a 21% increase in performance which is pretty hefty.

Anyway, I think you guys are definitely jumping ahead of yourselves :p

I'll swing by for another drive by later after I've had a nap
