ATI 2900xt performance is still has performance issue in Lost planet but in Company of heroes which they were getting beaten up by a 8800GTS 320mb now is beating up 8800GTX by even 30%+.
In mid range ;! 2600XT woops 8600gts card by 50% in all most every benchmark but the game is pretty much unplayable unless you like to play at 20FPS
In the lowest range 8500gts woops 2400xt by 30%+ but again the game are unplayable unless you like playing at 10FPS.

* Despite its unassuming performance in DirectX 9 benchmarks, the ATI Radeon HD 2900 XT is capable of beating the Nvidia GeForce 8800 GTX, which is much more expensive, in DirectX 10 applications provided that the Catalyst driver has game-specific optimizations. Of course, Nvidia?s ForceWare driver has to ?know? the particular game to run it at a high speed, too.
* The ATI Radeon HD 2600 XT and HD 2400 XT are kind of DirectX 10 kings in their respective price categories. However, these cards often prove to be slower than Nvidia?s GeForce 8 in the more important DirectX 9 applications.
* The ATI Radeon HD 2000 architecture features the most advanced implementation of DirectX 10 today.
* Performance of both ATI Radeon HD 2000 and Nvidia GeForce 8 is fully dependent on drivers, therefore, it is nearly unpredictable which graphics card will eventually become better DirectX 10 performer.
