As we saw in the Radeon HD 4870 X2 vs. GeForce GTX 295 results, Windows 7 performance for the GTX 260 is, well, dire. The HD 4870 loses out a touch when compared to Vista, but NVIDIA's card gives away almost one-third performance in a game where frame-rates are already low. Should NVIDIA fix the problem, performance will be back up to Radeon HD 4870 1GB levels.
