I have read over in the New Articles Forum that the Video card is not the bottleneck, so that's one reason they haven't changed. Just my opinion, but if I'm doing reviews of the best, latest, bleeding edge products, I'm surely going to pull out the best video card I can find. I think ATI deserves this.
And when NV 30 comes out, if that video card is in the "New Reviews" I'm going to be waving a BS flag.

theres something to be said for keeping as much of the testbed the same from review to review

It has to do with the number of cards we have available; we have far more Ti 4600s to seed our reviewers with than we have Radeon 9700s. With that said however, I will be using the 9700 in a review I'm working on for next week.
Take care,
Anand
