ive np with ATI beating nvidia at all i just think its very unfair the way you all compare cards on price rather than dual v single,some ppl simply dont want a dual card.

some ppl cant have a dual due to PSU limitations or just dont like them,and a single card is preferred,in which case the 280 wins regardless of the price difference.
What exactly is the difference between a GTX280 and 4870X2, performance aside? We dont have power comparisons yet. They are exactly the same size, and probably produce the same heat.

If the GTX280 and 4870X2 had the same performance, same power consumption, same size and same heat. But the 4870X2 was $100+ cheaper. Which would you pick?
