GTX 295 is to some extent faster than HD5870 without tessellation and alot faster when HD5870 use Tessellation . in most of the tests.
it's More likely 10%-35% not 1%.

Tesselation wouldnt count anyway with gtx295. 295 is a dual gpu 5870 is a single gpu. Ive never been that impressed with the 295. maybe i have a downer on it but all i can think of is its got good power requirements for its power. but gimme two gtx275 any day. and two 5870 would just rip its areshole in two

Unhappy ATI 5800/5700 series ever increasing prices!

A friend just installed his new 5770 & this is one h3ll of a card for $160!

Reviewers report that 2X 5770's in CF out-perform a single 5850, so given that the 5850's will probably be going for around $300, money wise you are not losing anything by going with a pair of 5770's.

Of course the price of the 5700 series will probably go up now also, especially the 5770!

Nvidia isn't going to be any help until 2Q10, if they are still even in the GPU business!
