Interestingly, while is was billed as a 4890 with dx11, it pretty consistently performs below 4890 levels at stock. The expected price is also too high at $240.
My take: I agree with the article, if the price comes down $20 and the cards can consistently overclock to reach 4890 performance levels (I they probably can) then I'd say it was a good buy. But as it stands now? Save the money, get a 5770 for a lot less and enjoy. Or better yet, just spend more and get a 5850.

I prefer the way they test, as it's how you use it in games: Finding the highest resolution and level of detail that lets you run the game at a playable framerate. Looks like it almost exactly splits the difference between the 5850 and the 5770
