Putting it within 5-6$ of the 6970, ATi's fastest single GPU.

You also get PhysX, CUDA, and the benefits of being green. Sure, it's only 9% faster, but that's 9% for only 6$ more? Along side the fact it can be heavily OC'ed, and NVIDIA's DX11 performance is 30-40% higher than ATi's.

Great deal.

    No problem, but it seems I didn't share fast enough!

    By the time I had posted this on all my favorite websites...they were sold out. I guess the fastest single GPU @ 30% off was so tempting that within the first half our they sold out...amazing.

    I bought the entire red alert series when it came out as a pack all together in Command and Conquer: the first Decade. A solid purchase.
