The 5970 can still give the 580 a run for its money I doubt i will be looking for a new card any time soon.

Yeah, it would be foolish to go alone with Nvidia their cards are expensive, AMD are going for cheap, efficient and still quite high performance cards so IMHO you will find that AMD have a larger share of the market...

It was very interesting reading the SimHQ interview with Oleg where he said he was in constant contact with Nvidia, who have assisted greatly in helping him get the most out of NV technology for SoW. They even sent tech reps to visit them in Moscow. Even more interesting was that Oleg said he has received no such help from AMD/ATI. They won't even answer his emails!

I know what brand of card I'll be buying for SoW.

They're still not getting involved with developers? I thought they changed all that and increased their level engagement last year.

Well it's unlikely the 580 will be the fasted card when SOW is released, since the 6990 should be out by then. But if youy want a signle gpu, and have loadsa money, 580 should be the best.

I wouldn't bother with Toms Hardware anymore - was great some years ago, but was bought out and reviews have gone downhill. Particularly nvidia vs ATI/AMD.

Indeed, the lack of support from AMD is rubbish (I wonder if emails not returned can be linked to the AMD ATI takeover - staff more worried about their jobs than helping a developer at the time?). But we won't really know what's best until release time - it'll be a DX11 game after all, so it should run equally on either brand, as long as AMD eventually catch up and work with Oleg.
