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?
