[H]ard|OCP has had a GeForce GTX 460 1GB SLI versus Radeon HD 5850 CrossFireX showdown before just over a month ago and now that we have some new drivers out it is worth revisiting.  The main reason for this is the lackluster performance offered by AMD in some games, but not in all the games tested.  If you have been holding off on a purchase of a game or hardware because of those results then take a look at the much more consistent results [H] saw this time around
