A lot of sites already reviewed the card.

When do the cards hit the stores?

Hard OCP even used FSX to benchmark the card.

Hahahaha! If they seriously were not much faster, nVIDIA wouldn't even release them.

However they support DX10. Your 7900GTX dosn't. Nor does your opperating system.

So now what is the better card eh?

none of the DX10 cards have been tested under real world conditions on real world DX10 games. So far its all been done in a lab using drivers and an operating system that will continue to be developed well after released to the market.

What I have heard from those who have been working around the format and the engineering samples is really good but as far as they (and I) am concerned, until full support hits the market and the cards are installed into all the different variations of hardware and then are pitted against the different DX10 game patches and upgrades, no one knows how well they will actually fair.
