Oh, I don't know, considering that (a) it's still the second-fastest
card out there, and (b) it's within 3% of the first-fastest
TNT2-150/170.  So it depends on your perspective:  Either you see them
both as the fastest 32bpp renderers, or you see the industry delivering
nothing but crap for 32bpp rendering.
