If you are looking for more performance than that, the GeForce GTX 280 looks to be a good option now and we’d dare say it’s a better option than the Radeon HD 4850 X2, especially as a stock GTX 280 is a good ?50 cheaper. Admittedly there are times when the 4870 X2 will completely blitz the GTX 280, but there are just as many examples where the dual-GPU behemoth will suffer from performance inconsistencies like those we saw in our Far Cry 2 DirectX 9.0 tests thanks to unoptimised drivers or engine limitations. The bad news is that official driver support from AMD isn’t coming until January, so 4870 X2 owners may well feel a little let down by AMD's drivers here.
