Here is the deal. I had a GTX260 regular one (no need to spend the extra $30 for overclocking it when you can do it your self) The STOCK GTX260 on my e8500 @ 4.0ghz hit like 14,500 pts in 3dMark06. I over clocked the card a little higher than the “superclocked” EVGA 260 and hit 16,000 and change.

The same 4.0ghz on and the stock GFtech 285 hit 16,x00, a little higher than the “superclocked” 260. BUT, I have this card CRANKED now, 790mhz core and the mem/shader I dont remember off the top of my head but they are WELL above any “overclocked” edition of the 285. (granted I am fully water cooled) But the max 3dMark06 I hit sofar was 20,200 marks.

the 285 is a hefty card! Once the Fermi cards come out, the GTX2## cards will drop in price, so I will be going SLI for sure!

If your looking to upgrade and arnt in a rush, hold out for the Fermi. they will be leaps above a 280/290 card.
