Wow, too bad for NVidia.
However, as a new folder, I have to say that if I was in the market for a mainstream card right now, I would take the GTS 450 hands down.
Would love to see anyone post some f@h data for the GTS 450 and HD5770.
You may want to see if you're better off with a GTX460 for f@h; I don't fold but some people have been grumbling that the GTX460 is far better than a GTS450 at folding even if you factor in price/performance. The price drops on the GTX 460 768MB versions have been stunning, and you don't need a 1GB version for folding, anyway.
Also, if all you want to do is to fold, you're almost always better off with NV so long as Stanford continues to optimize for NV cards with CUDA.
