    X1950 pro is no comparison as not DX10 compatible.
    To be honest, XFX, nobody cares. There are no DX10 games out, and when Crysis and Unreal 3 do come out, who wants to play them at 5fps on the DX10 codepath because they paid over-the-odds for a mediocre card six months before any DX10 games were available?

    lol was that really verbatim? Sounds like a fairly curt response...

    I dunno why they can't be a bit more sensible with their replies. No mention of HDCP? I think they are right about the adaptors, but they should have expressed it a bit more nicely.
