Looks good...

The gauntlet has been thrown down.

Nvidia - what have you got in reply? (Hopefully something good to bring prices down a touch!)

It's not that rosy.
This card delivers 50-60% more than my GTX460 while using the same amount of power. That's impressive. But the GTX460 is a mid-range card. If the mid-range 7-series deliver 25-30% more horsepower, that's not a very compelling upgrade. And I'm skipping a generation here.
