Fast, and cheap DX10 card
Pros: Superfast, cheap card with state of the art HD capabilities
Cons: Power, but not more than a Nvidia card
Review:
This card has been a real performer for me in games, and the beauty is that ATI brings out new drivers every month which give a 5-10% boost in performance every time. How good is that???
Plus, the Crossfire performance is way better than SLI...

Need more DX10 game to truely compare
Pros: ATI first DX10 release
Cons: Still a bit behind on it's competitor (Nvidia)
Review:
Cnet was right. We need more DX10 game to compare which graphic is better. By have 128 stream proc more than the GTX, means this card should outrun the GTX in DX10 game. But now this card is behind on DX9 game which can't really compare to the almightly 8800GTX. I buy this card for the specs it has, which is more offering the Nvidia has with it's card. Free Blackbox game from Valve is a +. Also Newegg offer free G5 logitech laser mouse, which you can't beat that deal.
