If we did get 7950 beating performance, I could see the 400 dollar price tags coming true.

I for some reason think these scores are too good by about 10% though.... Just the scores of the gtx 580 seem a bit high verses the 7950.
All I can say it looks good, its quieter than 7970 which was quiet, it clocks to similar levels, and it cost less.

Hope it's true.
