    Is that so? How many 120Hz IPS screens do you know?


    B)Well, i have logic.As it does not apply to you, i can just fireback, you dont have any data to back up your statement too.So thats a draw mate.
    See, that's the thing. You're the one saying that everyone who buys these cards have screens of a certain resolution. You're the one who is narrowing the field without proof of that. I'm the one leaving it open, as it is. Because, as I said before, hardware purchases, as many other types of purchases, are not always based on logic.


    C)You cant say i wrongly assume people who spend 700$ on GFX cards have a taste for the best of the best if you cant "back up" your statement with data too, now dont you ?
    Read above.


    D)Because to get all data points needed for comparisons for every card, you have to have unified testing specification for everything from slowest cards to the fastest ones.Moreover having more data you can draw conclusions.Such as, maybe GTX590 is vram starved ?.More data points is ALWAYS better.As to the second part, they didnt ignore the lower resolution scores.They showed you them to make up your mind, didnt they ?However in THEIR assesement they arent relevant.
    What's the point in comparing a dual GPU card with mid/low end cards? As for the vram starved, i'll get back to you later (G).


    F) You said "GTX is all round better than 6990" .It isnt.All round means in every scenario.But its faster "on average" not "always".And has its drawbacks.You wont argue that overvolt protection works better on 6990 than 590 ?Or will you :-)
    1- In five resolutions tested, it won three, tied one and lost one. That makes it more well rounded.

    2- I don't know. Have you seen many 6990 overvolted? The only one I've seen, @ Neoseeker, curiously died shortly after the review. How do you like them apples?


    G) Yes it got lower score in one resolution, but its kinda implied that in multi monitor setting it would get worse score also...
    Oops...

    H) According to nvidia these cards feature protection from such things.And they doesnt work properly.So thats not a plus.
    Overclock always had risks. And he did go way above stock voltage.


    I)Maybe you should show whole quote from him
    From tpus review:


    Yes, clearly AMD paid him off.Thats why he doesnt recommend neither card.And recommends 580.
    There you go trying to spin things... You said "they take into consideration real price not the imaginary one". And they didn't. In their review, both cards cost the same, so price difference wasn't a factor either.


    Im gonna stop here cause its pointless.Score isnt based on median of the results, but what reviewer gets after digesting them all.Get over it.
    Final score is arbitrary? Makes perfect sense.
