It's nice to see ATI doing so well (as a Mac user, I'm perpetually cursed to root for the smaller guy in the electronics world).

Check out these new benchmarks of the RADEON 9700 vs. the GF4 Ti4600:

Good quote, relating to UT2003:
"UT2003 - 1600x1200x32; 4XAA; 16XAF – The Radeon 9700 doused the Ti4600 by about 25%. Now get a load of this, that is with the GF4 running without AA or AF. With 4XAA turned on the Ti4600 was crushed by nearly 300%. The Radeon 9700 simply made quick work of the Ti4600 under this UT2003 demo."

I can't wait to get my hands on one o' these babies, along with some pumped-up new Power Mac (quad-proc? If only MOSR was right... ) in January!

The Mac gaming scene shall be saved.

EDIT: Edited to fix link due to forum updates.
