Notice how even the SINGLE HD3750 beats the 8800GT in 3dmark06 when the HD3870 was overclocked and the single HD3750 even manages to beat the 8800GT in some games without being overclocked. Also, please note how the HD3750's in crossfire manages to beat the 8800GT in 3dmark06 by 5,000 points and they werent even overclocked in crossfire. You going around saying how a single 8800GT beats out HD3870's in crossfire only makes you look foolish, and if anybody is a fanboy Tricky is just because he spits out lies without proof. I have proof to backup my claims.

Well your proof is retarded. you say a single HD3750 beats an 8800GT , wile in the link u posted says the the 8800GT loses to it online in HL2:ep2 and Prey. And that Crossfire chart clearly shows the HD3750s beatign the 8800GT..but em, they didnt show two 8800GT's OCd.. Anyway, there WAS a thread that I saw TODAY that one 8800GT beats two HD3750's in 3dmark06...im still looking for it. Notice how the HD3750 loses to almost all game benchmarks compared to the 8800GT.. It showed it beating the 8800GT only when overclocked.. 8800GT would do the same if OC'd..

EDIT: and we all know these new ATI cards lose to NV's when AA is turned on..

Notice how I said that the single HD3750 beats the 8800GT in SOME games, please learn how to comprehend english a little bit more. I never said that HD3750's in crossfire beats 8800GT's in sli, please stop posting bs even though the known thesis is that HD3750's in crossfire will beat 8800GT's in sli due to crossfire being more efficient. You said That a single 8800GT beats HD3750's in crossfire, I showed you proof that what you said is blatantly false. You just keep on trying to bring up stuff that I never said.

BTW they fixed the AA bug with the HD3750's.

General consensus is that the HD 3870 is slightly below the 8800GT. The HD 3850 is definitely below the 8800GT but is the best bang-for-buck card currently.

Let me get this straight....you spend around a grand on a PC so you can have a higher 3DMark06 score? That is just sad...I couldn't care what the benchmark scores are, as long as it performs in game. The 2900XT looked decent from the 3dmark06 score...but what happened to it! 3DMark06 is not made to test these new cards.
