Ok, so ATI has announced the most powerful graphics card (on paper) ever made. The HD 5970. Heres the specs and link to benchmarks and all that jazz.

...of making this card when there's no games currently good enough to play it on.
And ATI dont seem to have the drivers/software to take full advantage of this cards power.
If Nvidia made a card of the same specs it would rape this card to bits.

One card will probably do it.
