The likes of the HD4870/4850/GTX's are getting all the attention, but the clever buyer will be going sli/ crossfire on the older generation.
Take the HD4850 which is suppose to be near or above 8800gtx performance for $229, at that price you will be able to get 2 x 9600gt's/ HD3870 which will be a nice bit faster for the same price..
HD4870 $330 will be up against 2 x 8800gts
GTX260 $450 up against 2 x 8800gtx
And so on...
