The dust is beginning to settle a weekend on from the launch of AMD's Radeon HD 6850 and HD 6870 graphics cards. Having now sifted through the hyperbole and bombast from NVIDIA and AMD over the past week, with both companies eager to promote the virtues of their graphics cards and supporting ecosystems, it's time to take stock and dole out a little advice, I think.
The Epic Games Store is giving away two Styx games this week.
Today, Bungie premiered its “Developer Insights | Runner Shells” video of their PvPvE survival extraction FPS Marathon.

Single card solution I say they are a tie as benchmarks are about even.
The GTX460 runs cooler but the HD 6850 gets better performance gain from overclocking than the GTX 460 even though the GTX 460 overclocks well.
As a two card solution the HD 6850 wins as it's performance blows the GTX 460 sli away.
Benchmarks to back that statement up

GTX 460.
Good article :)
That's a nice gain...I got a GTX 460 768 right now...I think it might be worth it to get a 6870. Physx is a huge drain on resources so I always have it turned off: not a huge loss to me. But the real factor is "which one folds better?"
