ATI is back on top right now though  - all websites say so.

 

To be fair the nVidia GTX 280 is the best standalone graphics card on the market but ATI's crossfire capabilities give its slightly weaker cards the ability to edge above it.

Who cares about the underlying technology if it doesn't play games as good? We buy one card in the shops, whatever it is labelled, and ATI's cards provide the best value for money and best performance per watt for every price range from top to bottom. Splitting one GPU into two isn't usually visible at the consumer level due to good drivers, and ATI makes more money per chip due to higher yields and smaller die sizes than Nvidia.
