Get a ATI 5870 or Wait for the GTX 485

I'm curious too. As someone who is looking to get a crossfire 5870 setup in a little while, is there any reason why I would go for the 1gb OC 5870 over the 2gb one for cheaper and just OC it myself? Other than the output (does it come with an adapter to DVI) is there anything different? I'd be running it on a single screen at 1920x1200 - but if I can get double the memory on it for roughly the same price/cheaper, I might aswell. (There don't seem to be any reviews on single screens either.)

When you mention adapter I take you are referring to the Eyefinity6 line - I saw a video review of the Asus model and it came with a whole bunch of mini display to DVI and HDMI adaptors however the guy said if you want it to go higher then 1920x1200 you will need an active display adaptor rather then the passive ones supplied but that should effect you.
