Well all the cheaper 4890's were sold out..

I bought a Palit GTX 275 after the sales guy on the phone at OC suggested/told me the 275GTX was better than the 4890? interesting to hear if this is the case... its sat here at work, and am thinking of a way how to smuggle it into the house ... LOL

This boards enormous... :)

I think it's slightly faster if you aggregate the results from every benchmark/resolution (eg. http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Powercolor/HD_4890_PCS/28.html), but it goes back and forth depending on the game.
