I think AMD should have introduced a new architecture for EVERY SINGLE card in the new naming scheme. Hawaii all the way so there would be no 'rebranding' accusations.
I do agree with you. Everyone is focused on the 7970 price drops.
8000 series are OEM.
What FPS are you aiming for?
Try turning down anti-aliasing.
Or set your settings to High, then individually increase them to Ultra to hit that FPS.
Texture quality you want of course.
I set my screensaver for 1 or 2 minutes when I'm AFK.
Right now it is set as the Battlefield 3 Loading screen (Little LOADING animation on the bottom corner)
Ohooooh damn..
The magazine is empty now.

Game. Video edit, render etc.
Browse the web with a billion chrome plugins.
and most importantly, (if you're up for it) FOLDING@HOME.
Get an SSD when you can.
Nvidia really needs to step up their game to their partners. (Heard many times from people that Nvidia is a difficult company to work with)
What's a good name for a Mantle competitor? Maybe GeCore, GeforceCore
