U will wonder what changed ? We have seen so many GTX 260 Core 216 reviews @ Christmas time, were they corrupted ? Here Anandtech compared $ 150 GPU against $ 215 GTX 260.

So many possibilities,

1. Anandtech favours ATI ?
2. December reviews were corrupted, Nvidia influenced.
3. Nothing changed, I m not reading properly

I think you got your math a bit wrong there dude.

I always thought drivers influenced things a lot and nVIDIA were always more prompt than ATi in that regard.
nVIDIA started scoring big after they launched drivers for Far Cry.

Which school did you attend??

ek duni do chaar

More ATi fanboi beetches...

OMG what I did ?

@sidhu..

The ATI cards are not 1xx% faster.. they score 1xx% as much as the nvidia cards.
Therefore, the ATI cards are xx% faster than the nvidia cards

lol sidhu, you are weak in maths..

^^ lol pwned

Lol sidhu, go to school now. Its not late, yet!

ATI Radeon HD 4870 512MB 39.1FPS ---- 123% faster
Nvidia GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 31.9FPS

(39.1 - 31.9)/31.9 = .2257 = 22.57% faster not 123%.
