I wish Gautam had let this http://www.xtremesystems.org/forums/showthread.php?p=4007933#post4007933 open instead of this one. Oh well, rain in the pictures again guys.
Now these are really nice pictures... but I'm sure you're all dieing to hear about performance . I happen to know the numbers. From what I've been told (confidential source):

5870 is 100% faster than 4870 (2x)
5870 will surpass GTX295
5850 will surpass GTX285

Quote me on it. You'll see. You're welcome!
