So there's a lot of hoopla about how it's only evenly matched with a 5870 while gobbling power... let's compare across many review sites, eh?
PRICE DIFFERENCE:
5870 costs 84% of a GTX480 ($420 on newegg vs. $500 on amazon). So a 16% price difference. Does the price/performance match? Sure looks it... yes it runs hot and gobbles power, but if that's the price for the performance: I sure don't care.
