Saw some reviews for the new AMD/ATI 7970 3GB pop up.
Priced at ~$549.

Seen those, I have to say I'm not impressed, looks to be 10 fps better. Unless its dirt cheap comparing to 570/580, unless my expectations were/are too high, I was expecting to see 20fps difference where it counts.

As is I guess it helps 3D more then anything else.

Problem with these reviews is that they put up a 7970 with 3GB of ram against the 570 1.2GB and 580 1.5GB cards, I like to see them same settings with more vram at the higher res.
