Is it really worth the expense?

No.

You can apply that to any highest end card though, it's more of a want rather than need thing...

I could certainly put one to good use in Linux and Folding@Home, something which my 5870 has been quite frankly useless at...

These reviews always go on about real world usage results but can you really tell the difference between 4x and 8x AA at 2560x1600?

Is more than 2x really necessary?

Sounds pretty pointless to me and to be honest a waste of processing power.

Would be nice to see some screen shot comparisons.
