There's just no way to tell what's coming.
Hey, you found your way here!

I'd say since this review is with pre-release drivers it has a lot of room to improve, probably even in time for launch-day reviews, compared to two+ months of being out in retail and already having had some improvements (Radeon 7970). Also judging by the "official" nVidia graph, I can't picture they'd claim 40%+ faster in BF3 when it's not even remotely like that in actuality. Thus I think we'll see better results in launch-day reviews than this one, which is only a good thing for us consumers .
