That's no G92 as it has got VP4 and DX10.1 support, but i don't get the (re)naming scheme too.
As a hardcore ATI user you certainly feel satiesfied about your card judgement when NV has got production problems (ATI does too, but at least they sold some DX11 cards). But that does not make fglrx better.
Some users definitely have got direct comparision about features - not only about OpenGL speed. fglrx "shines" in some older Linux PTS benchmarks but is unable to run Unigine Heaven. I would really like to know if Fermi correctly renders it NOW. But when such a benchmark is delayed for ages just because of fglrx driver FAULTS then thats pure crap.
What is your gain with a DX11 capable card with Linux when it has several known drawbacks and absolutely no aspect where it is better? If it would allow you to play games with Tessellation (like Q always mentions) NOW then you would have got at least a small advantage, but i definite see none. I would not wonder if NV shows a working Linux solution with that engine on CES and ATI does not.
