Everywhere I read people are claiming 2x 4870 in crossfire beat a single 280gtx. However, the review charts in this website have the 280gtx beating the 4870s by quite a bit almost every single time. Also the 280gtx is quite a deal less expensive than 2 4870 cards. So why is it everywhere you turn people are bashing the 280gtx? This is the only part of the current upper end cards I do not understand.
9800GTX+<4850<260gtx 216 core<>4870<280gtx<4870x2
Where do the 4870 and 4850 crossfire fit?
