    Nah, GTX480 and GTX470 will sell like hot cakes. Really really hot cakes Remember that ATI has had a few driver revisions for the HD5870 while this is maybe the second or third revision for the GTX480. Performance will continue to climb but that damn power consumption sure as hell won't NVIDIA has done it again, another furnace GPU that leaves the entire bottom end for ATI to greedily suck up. Oh well, HWBOT will love it

    Even if drivers give it a 25% boost, it still won't account for the expected 40% price difference...

    The only word suiting gtx480 is "underwhelming".

    when you go nearer to the high end, each dollar you pay brings less. this is so in nearly every aspect of not only videocards but pretty much with everything you can buy.

    HD5970's price is %75 higher than 5870 but only brings %40ish average performance.

    All of this being said, why so few games? Was this indeed the complete list of games for the review?
    Has anyone really been far even as decided to use even go want to do look more like?
    INTEL Core i7 920 // ASUS P6T Deluxe V2 // OCZ 3G1600 6GB // POWERCOLOR HD5970 // Cooler Master HAF 932 // Thermalright Ultra 120 Extreme // SAMSUNG T260 26"
