So approximately the same perf/price ratio... depending (a lot?) on local price variations I guess. Plus maybe noone needs the perf of the 5970 yet, except maybe <a href="http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/HIS/Radeon_HD_5970_CrossFire/7.html">for Crysis</a> :D Well, at release time the 5970 was twice the price of the 5850 and did perform somewhat like a pair of CrossFired 5850.
