    Anandtech has the best comparison charts. You should steal them.

    (Hope this append is not a dup, last appends didn't seems to make it)

    Please double check HD5770 vs. GTX 260. These are similar performing cards, but index is almost 2X different. You may be averaging in 0's for games like Aliens vs. Predator for the GTX 260.

    You guys do realize that this is just a list of things that they've added to their charts not the charts themselves right?

    i.e. the gtx 460 was not included on this list because they didn't add it to the charts, and the gtx 580 is over the hd 6990 because the list isn't in order.
