All benchmarks I've seen so far don't even show the slightest difference @2560 so that card is really useless for single monitor setups in any case..
 
You couldn't make a bad choice 🙂 Both cards are very fast and you will enjoy your games regardless of your decision.
 
Ok thank you all for your help. Anyone have any suggestions where I can get one now? I usually buy from newegg but they are currently sold out.

I was going to get the damned ASUS hd5870v2 tomorrow lol. I've been staring at it in my cart for a week now and finally decided to pull the trigger now it's gone.

Guess the gtx260 will keep me going till I find another decent warranty of a GPU that I can change the voltage on.
 
Seems like I've seen a couple of games where the 480 bests the 5970. I intend to sli my 480 but I wanted a powerful single card to start with. I've run sli before and if the cards don't have enough grunt individually you'll notice it in games that don't scale very well or at all.
