i think i would rather have a gtx 470 than either a 5870 or 5850.

When you look at things such as minimum frame rates and tessellation performance, it makes me think that you would be better off with it for future games.

now was it worth waiting 6 months for, no, but now that it's here, it's certainly a valid option.
