I've read like 10 reviews and I still can't figure out the best card to buy, because the reviews are wayyyy to diffrent and I don't know which one is correct. I's also hard to find reviews that even have the cards I care about.
For example, HD4870 and GTX260, there are like no reviews with these two cards at the same time, and the framerates for GTX 260 from diffrent reviews can differ up to 40% (with about the same settings in a game), how am I supossed to know which is faster?
another example, 9800GTX and HD 4850, I found a review that suggests 4850 is faster but 9800GTX in another review (no none of these are 9800GTX+)
I'm starting to wonder if it's even nassisary to know exactly which is faster, cause I just saw another review where 4870 in Crossfire beeing faster than GTX 280 in every game except Crysis, and it's a lot faster in other games, a lot slower in Crysis.
I was planning to get a new rig this month, and I can't choose between HD4870 CF, HD 4850 CF, 9800GTX SLI, GTX 280, GTX 260. some of them are obviously faster than others, but cheaper, which means I can get a Logitech MaxAir mouse, which looks pretty cool (it's like a Wii Mote with laser mouse function).
