Well I wasn't. I was comparing the whole market. I'm not interested in only buying along brand lines.

Also the 295 is faster than the 5870 in any SLI optimized application, so if the GT300 equals the 295 it will be the fastest single chip GPU on the market.
The 295 has about the best driver optimization it's going to get and it barely beats the 5870. The 5870 has room for more optimization plus there is plenty of headroom for a 5890.

I guess it's good that you guys are finally moderating your expectations. Thought probably not for the reasons I advocated...
