It's not as fast as the 4870x2 but when you weight up the cost of both cards £225 from scan for the 260gtx and £330 for the 4870x2, I think its the best value v performance and cost around at the moment. http://www.overclockersclub.com/reviews/xfx_gtx260_black/ Gotta I disagree with muck I’m currently replacing my 8800gtx with a xfx 260 gtx black edition, after reading the reviews it beats the 4870 1gb and in some cases the 280gtx.

They had the 8800which blowed the competition away and since then nothing really worthy. Yes they have faster cards than the 8800 but only just. The same way that Intel let AMD into number one spot and then, when AMD were the gamers choice of chip, they throw it away and Intel grab it back. Although with the Intel Core i7 I think AMD have a way to go to get it back. Well they’ve sat back really. They had the 8800which blowed the competition away and since then nothing really worthy.

I could have tolerated these issues more easily if Nvidia hadn't spent all their energy passing the buck in the support department blaming anyone execept themselves.
