Will the Radeon 9000 series perform better than the GTX 700 series?

I was looking up some stuff on the Radeon 9000 series and found that the 9970 will out perform the GTX 780. Does that mean the 9950 will be similar to the GTX 770 only cheaper?

Considering how the GPU's and cards don't exist yet if your source says a 9970 is going to outperform a 780 then why not ask them if a 9950 will outperform a 770 and cost less in the shops?

We have NO idea how the cards will perform. But by following trends, I would assume that if they decide to do a 20nm manufacturing process instead, it will whoop the 700 series. But if they just improve on the 28nm manufacturing process, they would match the 700 series. P.S. I think literally everybody wants them to just move onto the 20nm manufacturing process so we can see crazy performance gains.
