This is still with the supplied default drivers that came in the box. Apparently there's some talk going about that a newer 8.851 driver offers a slight performance boost, but we'll see. Gibbo and other people were using 8.790.

ps. It includes overclocked and crossfire results too
Those results seem quite good. Looks like AMD have got another 4xxx series of cards on their hands. Cheap to produce, and trades blows with Nvidias top GPU, while being cooler, quieter and cheaper to run.

It could be drivers bring the 69xx cards more life too, as it's a new arch for AMD.

I take it the 570 and 580 will be dropping in price very soon.

I wasn't going to buy a card this year, but if these things are cheap, cheap to run, cool and quiet...
