Overclocking Extravaganza: GTX 275's Complex Characteristics

Power Consumption
At Idle, the GTX 275 does very well, drawing less power than all the other boards we tested, even when overclocked.
Crank up the load, however, and the GTX 275 becomes a bit of a power hog. Overclocked power draw is higher than everything else we tested.

Not only does the gtx275 beat the 4890, but the gtx260 beats the 4870 !http://www.techspot.com/review/164-radeon-4890-vs-...">http://www.techspot.com/review/164-radeon-4890-vs-...

" Given the performance and pricing of Phenom II and the upcoming Radeon 5000 series, if AMD does not pull into black [records a profit] and achieves great sales success, we don't know what needs to happen in order for AMD to actually earn some serious money. "LOL
Will ATI ever make a profit ? We keep hearing how smart they are and how they can really make money while NVidia's monster vore costs nvidia so much ! LOL
Awwww- poor ati can't make dime one while nvidia keeps posting profits...

Any red roosters gonna stop crowing about smaller gpu cores and their savings for ATI who loses money every single quarter, anytime soon ?
Probably NOT - they're so smart, so wise about making gpu's.

Better be careful - from their 4890 extravaganza overclock article they did first and used the results in this comparison against nvidia:-
" We absolutely must caution our readers once again that these are not off-the-shelf retail parts. These are parts sent directly to us from manufacturers and could very likely have a higher overclocking potential than retail parts. "
YES WE KNOW - NOW YOU'VE TRANSFERRED YOUR RESULTS HERE AGAINST A 703 CORE THAT IS LOWER THAN THE FTW EVGA GTX275 you can but stock faster!

You had BETTER look at a few other places that aren't so GD biased it's built in - and Derek is insanely red rooster fan boyed, and hates Nvidia, obviously, like so many little cluckers here for over a year now.-

Jeepers- a special 4890 up against non overclocked gtx275 in the 4890 article, then transfer the special results here, and put NOT a regular clocked 4890 as in the other article to be half fair - but jam the massive results in from the special cards they got...

I'm mean you really can't screw it up much worse than that.
They did their best red rooster bias blab possible, I'll say that much for em, and covered it up as best they could.
