    Yeah, except that it's a professional class card, not a gaming card. I wouldn't be surprised if Crossfire 4850's beat that thing to a pulp in gaming framerates.

    Oh, I was just looking at the specs in the article, and it seems that my overclocked 4870 has higher memory bandwidth (115Gb/s versus 102) even though the Quadro's fill rate is over 4 times as high (52 GTexels vs 12).
