I'll hold out till I see a reveiw from a hardware site I trust, but if these benches hold true, the ATi 3870 sales are in serious trouble.

Bioshock is about the only benchmark that shows what your summary claims.
They tested at 1280x1024, 1680x1050, 1920x1200
ET : QW - same
HL2 - same with no AA/AF, 20%, 10%, 30% slower with 4xAA/16xAF (wierd bump at 1680x1050)
FEAR - same
COD4 - same with no AA/AF, 20-35% slower with 4xAA/16xAF at all res
UT3 - same
Bioshock - same except at 1920

It would be nice if the review showed Crysis performance.

This card is proof that you dont need 1024mb or even 640mb of GDDR, you just need raw speed.
A nice Gimmick to keep the kids happy.

Squeeze that 3870 to under 200 dollars.... or
I need that dual slot cooling solution. If they put one on the 256mb version, I am sold.

this review is not accurate.
it is of a 8800gt 256mb with 1800mhz memory . that would be the speed the 8800gt 512mb is.
there is one xfx 8800gt 256mb on newegg with the nvidia spec 1400mhz memory. which would be slower than this by a likely significant amount.
