Is this right, does GTA IV support sli?

I like the comparison. Shows you what you get for $100 more. Seems Nvidia needs to drop the price of the 295.

No CFX nor SLI support. What i think is that GTX295 is running out of memory at that resolution. GTA 4 is all about CPU.

I'd like to see a single 5870/50 score then.

That's a bit over the top, the 295 is still a very good card, i would not upgrade to a 5970 if i had a 295... ok well maybe i would but i am pretty crazy

the 5970 is yet to beat the GTX 295 in the single card category for 3dmark vantage, 3dmark 01, 3d mark 06 and Aquamark 3 on hwbot
so don't count the 1 year old GTX 295 out against the 5970 just yet, plus I me likes my physx

Honestly.....who gives a flying f--- about a synthetic benchmark that isn't even close to reality?
I mean, if the 5970 beats the 295 in every game and DOESN'T beat it at those synth benchies, then all that really means is those benchies are completely worthless, since their primary job is to provide a non-bias way of simulating expected gpu performance IN A GAME.

so the 295 beats it in benchmarking programs, who cares. ati have brought out a card which is a beast for gaming, and if you want the best gaming card, its the new 5*** series.
nobodies counting out the 295, its just that the 5970 is so much better, and the 295 is good.

Either way, I would like to see the GTX 295 in a more affordable price range for my wallet.

Amen to that, I'd really like another one for quad SLI
as for synthetic benching if you really value Hwbot points and cups that makes all the difference. I personally can't account for the performance of the overclocked cards in benchmarks but id say the overclocked cards that won those medals could also beat their competitors in gaming benchmarks
I personally rather have another 20 hwbot points and a gold throphy instead
of a silver, that mean more to me than another X amount of FPS on a game that is already playable
also they compared the lowest clock stock gtx 295 (576mhz) against the highest clocked stock card (black edition) to make it fair they should have used a FTW
