Higher Clocked GTX260 vs 4870 1gb

[Howie]

After reading the XFX GTX260XX review over at ard, I was leaning towards that direction until the 4870 1gb came out. Now I'm not sure. Price is very similar between the two. Which card is generally better for 1920X1200 gaming?

I'd grab which one is cheaper, really. I'd say an 1gb 4870 has a slight performance advantage over the XFX XX edition, but if it costs much more over the GTX, I wouldn't take it. Now, if they're priced the same then ATI wins.

Anyway, I'm not a believer in OCed edition of videocards, since you're paying more for a slight overclock that you could just do it yourself, even better then they've done it. So....
