Help ATI RADEON HD7850 vs GTX570

[Nukem]

Just admit it guys, whatever you say, ATI beats nVidia having constructed the most powerful gpu the world has experienced until now: the 6990(4gb VRAM).
None of nVidia's gpu's can beat this one

Am I missing something?

690 seems to be even, if not better, in specs than the 6990.

Do some research for example go to this site:

It says that the GTX 570 is one of the best cards ( top 5 ) but it is overpriced for its performance ( 7th on the list ). The decision is up to you whether you have enough money to spend etc.

THIS...
google helps

btw Nvidia failed hard in the past because their 3gb graphic cards were only able to handle 1.5 GB due to their failure architecture

no the 6990 is better indeed.
their difference is negligible and the 6990's price-performance ratio is better(1.150$ or so while gtx 690's price is 1.480$ or so)
but why would anyone ever buy a gpu that costs more than a high-end pc?

cause its a dual core gpu card, same as people are buying two graphic cards.
