512SP single ,GPU 384bytes GDDR5,GTX 480 will be 20%-30% faster than GTX 295 and so logicaly say 50% faster than 5870.
Say the quote is right than GTX 480= GTX 295 or less 5% inferiour, just it will have DX 11. Is this seems logically for some people?
Nivida to launch after more than a year a card =GTX 295?

You're right
ATI 2900 cough
On paper means nothing. Did your source also tell you this supposed 40-50% was also in Batman by any chance?
