All of them seem to be up now.

That makes this week's mission "overclock my GTX260 to give similar performance to the new cards"

It looks like ATI have another winner on their hands, a £210 launch price is very promising, it wasn't that long ago when the 4870 1GB held that price bracket.

Is it just me or does this show even more how over priced the GTX295 is? You can crossfire 2 of these cards for less price than a GTX and surely would be more powerful?

Oooh similar spec to mine, I might join you with that challenge.

Hi guys.

First post here obviously, I just have a small comment to make.

Can you not release your 4890 benchmarks now it's past midnight? I would think that could be a preferable situation as there are literally thousands of Americans simply dying for more real quality English language benchmarks on this right now.

Yeah, that's what i do, that's what we all do right now... we all shell out £300 every month on a new GPU.... god praise Onlive, saving me £300 a month!

Yes I'm aware of that, being Scottish an all.

I do like to wind up the americans however. Seems like a good opportunity gone to waste.

SO ... how is HD4890 and GTX275 comparing to GTX280?

Both cards are faster out the box and overclock better.
