Yes, you are right about this......and only this bit...price point....But AMD have always undercut NV AFAIA
You are telling me that it isn't similar number of graphic cards?
Well just run 3x6970 vs 3x570.
The only interesting thing about comparing 3x6970 or 3x570 to for example 3x580 is to know if the performance increase justifies the price premium (and this will vary from person to person - $600 saved will go along way in buying next gen cards for example or 2 monitors). If the 3xGTX580 that will cost $1500 don't beat the other setups that are around $900 by quite a bit it will be disappointing.
There is a few others on this interesting review http://www.anandtech.com/show/4254/triplegpu-performance-multigpu-scaling-part1 .
I only copied the first page to not make this post to heavy on images (before anyone accuses me of favoritism) but it seems to be representative of the other benches as well, sometimes the GTX580 tri-sli extra power kicks in others it doesn't, sometimes drivers mess up either triple configuration, etc.
