    Remember people drivers, especially for new generation, can kill performance.
    killing performance? what do you mean, drivers can only give a boost of 3-4%, 10% at least? More I don'think it is possible.....

    Don't you remember how utterly useless GTX280 was at launch, and how it managed to give negative scaling in SLI many times Was fixed later with proper drivers

    Multi gpu performance are different than single gpu performance.....gtx280 was going fast at lanch and with nvida drvier had a good boost, but unfortunately nvida is better in releasing driver than ati, as we can see from the past generation
