I think his point was more about how the 320MB version of the GTS is right behind the 2900 XT. We don't have that in our review, or I missed it?

NV probably won this round, but we hope that AMD will not bankrupt and that ATI will rock with R700!! that or maybe the R600 drivers will kick some serious ass, keep fingers crossed for 7.6 Cat!

I just hope ATI does not go out of business. I like to see them crush nVidia. I just miss the good ol days with 5 or 6 companies battle it out and 3dfx was a big goliath. Like they say look how the mighty has fallen. The competition in video card companies reminds me of GM and Ford. Well I hope ATI releases the next series to beat nVidia's 8800 series. What I really like to see is a 3rd video card company competing. The best bet would be if Matrox comes back to the gaming market or Intel going into the gaming market like they once did.

Might want to find more benchmark sources, [H] is very nVidia-biased, if I'm not mistaken.
