the 10.3 drivers offer a substantial performance increase over the launch 9.12s, and the same can be expected over in NV land.
Whining about no dual monitor option, whining about a so called flicker problem with 5800 series, whining about the fact its unfair to compare a newly launch fermi with the latest ATI driver (oh you think nVida would do a fair bench)...get a grip man.
You complain about all the ATI fanboys and ranting/bashing on in these threads. Your just the same, clearly an nVidia fanboy, trying to find any stupid of reason to bash an ati product or use an excuse not to buy and ati product. You don't like ATI and your an nVidia fanboy thats why you won't buy a 5800 series card, don't use lame excuses like there is a flicker problem.

Its absolutely shocking the way some of you go on, so delusional.
Its a bloody graphics card company, its hardly Manchester United vs Liverpool rivalry is it, i cannot understand why you lot get so worked up.
