Not according to TPU's big ol' basket of games.

Once both are O.C'd you'll get an unnoticeable few percent/FPS more out of the HD 7870:

Yes, we all know the reviews are a number of months old, but its unlikely that anything earth-shattering is going to happen between last fall/winter and now on the performance front via driver optimization for either. Of course the two can have reviews/games cherry-picked to death, but outside of Nvidia or AMD favored titles there's not a whole lot of difference between them (other than price which is favoring the HD 7870 right now).
You mean like 13.8 beta for AMD?
