I saw that Newegg had a weekend sale on the Gigabyte OC 5870 (870mhz core) for 359.99 with 20 MIR so 339 AR. I was wondering how Gigabytes Cards stack up and if this is a good enough deal to move from GTX 260 Core 216's in SLI. I'd have posted this in [H]otdeals but don't have a high enough post count to make it in there.
 
GTX 260 sli = HD 5770 sli which is a lil bit faster than a 5870 depending on what games your run. its more of a side grade
 
I love my 5870 but if you've already got SLI 260's then it's probably not worth it. Sure, you'll get DX11 and lower power consumption but unless you're having a particular problem with SLI, I'd stick it out until the new cards are out.
