i'll have to check it out & get back to you as soon as i can. but allow me to not keep very high expectations from it.

@amitash
im not biased. its just that my experiences with a HD4850 & HD4870x2 have been a disappointment but nvidia products have never let my expectations down.
besides, heat is not a light thing to take. we spend quite a good amount of money on good cases & extra fans and all, then how can you say that HD4870x2 running hot doesn't bother you or anyone for that matter? people not complaining about i7 is a different thing. i don't want to get into those details. in short, its pros outweigh its cons.
and well, i did mention that whatever im saying is what i read & hear. so if you're terming me as biased then you might as well call half the world biased too

but yeah, +1 to ATI vs Nvidia. Price Cuts FTW.
