Extremetech reviewed these three cards and wow, HD4870 shows it's muscle.

It's neck and neck with GTX280 that costs twice.

GTX280 has 6.9$/FPS ratio
HD4870 has 4.6$/FPS ratio.
8800GT has 3.7$/FPS but this one is nowhere near to 4870 when it comes to sheer power. 4870 is 2x to 3x times faster.

Way to go ATI. Way to go.

GTX280 is around $489
HD4870 is around $279

Crysis:

GTX 280 at FullHD : 25 FPS
HD4870 at FullHD : 23 FPS
