@PSOLORD,
we all know that in HD both companies keep the spec unchanged, so we only tested it with older NV cards.

Yet Nvidia STILL lags behind ATI for using the latest technology. STILL no Directx 10.1, STILL no Shader model 4.1. Both of which are the official standard. I guess their cards just can’t handle it.

Since it is possible to use 55nm on the GTX 280/260 it is possible to increase the numbers of transistors and initial sizes of the core and they would hopefully create a GTX 280/260ULTRA or even better, a GX2

Good review although i don’t understand why you left out the HD tests of the ATI card.

Also we clearly see here that the 30% difference of the 4870X2 against the GTX 280 is a result of the bad AA performance of the rv670s.

Just imagine what will happen once the R700 comes out with the new improved cores. I forsee that 30% to be switched and enlarged!
