You provide three links for Just Cause 2, one of which shows a difference of 9.1 % on 1920 resolution (as opposed to the 7.2 % of my link) and another showing the reference 680 on even older drivers ahead of two factory OC'd 7970's. So I suppose you meant to say that we agree on GTX 680 being faster in Just Cause 2?
Then you go on and post a handful of reviews saying what I so precisely put as my closing line in my last post: 7970 is better in 2560 res and up. Good job although you didn't take as many cases as possible and didn't compare the 7970 GHz edition in all cases.
Max Payne is not similar, but there is too little data for a conclusive verdict. [H] shows GTX 680 ahead by 8.3 %. Tech Report didn't test at 1920 so no info points there.
Diablo III is easy but 7970 can't seem to get that 120 FPS. Passion Leads Army and Wargame are both new titles and as such have value that many of your AMD favouring titles are lacking.
Again: GTX 680 for 1920 and below, 7970 for above.

just cause 2 was tested with latest nvidia drivers in the first and second links i posted. according to the 2nd link GTX 680 is not faster at all even on 1080p. the thrid link is not a radeon HD 7970 Ghz edition review and was not tested with the latest nvidia drivers.
anyway here is a point I wish to make. of the most demanding games which barely hit 60 fps even at 1080p , HD 7970 simply wins more.

Shogun 2 is the one game which is really faster on the GTX 680 and struggles to hit 60 fps at 1080p on the high end cards.

GTX 680 is 12% faster than Radeon HD 7970 Ghz.
So really in the games which need that extra performance to get close to 60 fps the HD 7970 wins more games and with big margins. Frankly I don't care for a game which is doing 100+ fps at 1080p/1200p . When "push comes to shove" HD 7970 really proves itself.
