Um, did you guys actually READ the [H] review? The GTS consistently, and I mean, very consistently, out-performed the R600. Across the board, if I'm not mistaken, and I really like their hardware test formats. Benchmarks don't really impress me any more. Quote: "The GeForce 8800 GTS 640 MB is $50 cheaper, performs better, and draws a lot less power than the 2900 XT."
Doesn't sound like it held it's own to me against the GTS. Well, Nvid has my money this time round. Thanks for the huge buildup to this fizzle, ATI. Perhaps if they hadn't tried to hype it up so much, like saying it has 320 stream procs vs. 8800's 128..... oh well. Maybe next generation, right? Hope AMD procs are not this lame.
