Okay well i bought a Zotac GTX 260 the one with 216 cores recently and its amazing i love it. I wa slooking into the 275 though aswell and was wondering since this is an in between for the 280 and the 260 how much faster is it than the GTX 260? I mean I can play far cry 2 on all max settings at high fps. But how much better could a 275 be?

More shaders, basically a gtx260 with the same amount of shaders as a GTX285,but with the same number of rop's as a gtx260. Oh yeah, and its 55nm,
 
Not really much...here are a few runs that put them head to head.

3-5 FPS better here

Does 3-5 FPS justify the $250-$300 price tag....absolutely not if you ask me. Save that money and just run the GTX 260 for now. In about 3 months....then upgrade:D You'll be sick of Far Cry 2 soon anyway;)
