    I agree that the IXBIT review is suspect. But I'm not going to just take your word for it that 5970CF is beat by 480SLI either.

    5970CF so you are talking about QUAD GPU, ya I never said that. However 5870CF a fair comparison does lose if that is what you intended to mean. You don't have to take my word for anything I've been in this thread the entire time and read every single post and looked at all the numbers. It is a known fact that SLI does provide a better multi-GPU experience vs CF there are only rare cases that CF is better if an SLI profile isn't available or optimized.

    You said that ATI doesn't have anything to beat GTX480 SLI with. As I pointed out, that's not true. ATI still has the fastest single card and fastest multicard.

    That's your personal preference. After using both CF and SLI I don't really have any issue with either, though drivers become more critical.
