This dude is a waste of time for anybody with the slightest amount of intelligence.

Nice dodge. You clearly lack sources for your statements, you're a guy whom is continuously showing your lack of knowledge towards the subject you are so destined to forward.

If you dont know how to use sources please dont comment. you just infracted the forum rule no, 3. By showing agressive and insulting behavior.

What a joke. Dont tell me you dont know about the yield rates from TSMC, heat issues with the massive core. Not enough of the 512 cores to even put them them the market. Could have been a great card, but its kinda like a lamborghini engine in a dump truck.

I don't get what this proves given the latest dispute. The differences between the average fps is 4.4 That is hardly the 60% that they were originally targeting.

also are you calling bs on StrangleHold's sig? Again what are you doing?

GTX 480 is the best single-gpu on the market. Let drivers mature and we'll see more. It's a lot more futureproof than 5970, and performs better under tesselation. Add another 480 and you have the best gaming performance to this date. That's a fact.

Now over to the heat. All test of this card was ran with auto-fan speed, which usually goes between 40-50% speed and therefore hits 90c when oc'ed. Another reviews shows that on 75% fan speed it's able to stay stable under heavy load oc'ed on 75c. 100% fan speed = i have no clue.. But the noise won't be nice. (this varies depending on air flow..) Keep in mind the water cooled version from Evga.

It's a futureproof card. Beats 5970 under heavy tesselation and in Metro 2033. How can that be bad? it's not..

Let the card mature for 3-4 months. I'll get my Evga 480 by 1-5 april and i'll buy a second some months later.

Have you even seen this?

Nvidia takes a huge step in gaming, their cards are tuned for DX11 and tesselation. This summer, you'll see many titels taking advantage of Cuda and tesselation. One game that's just a bit heavy tesselated and GTX 480 pulls ahead of 5970. Sli 480 and you get playable framerates under extreme tesselation (60+).

does it ring any bells?

Good luck with that, the cards dont hit market until the 6th.

ok, nice job finding ONE benchmark in which the hd 5970 loses. look at one of the earlier posts with a s*** load of benchmarks (i think it was this thread). the hd 5970 wins pretty in much every single games tested (at the higher requirements since it gets majorly bottlenecked and does poorly with the lower resolutions) and wins by a much bigger margin than 4.4 fps... talk about confirmation bias...

edit: oops, sorry, meant to quote the benchmark post.

So what! That doesnt change anything I said. Sounds like a Helicopter. Six months late. Decapitated out the door because of yields rates. More watts under load then the 5970. Die size 1.58 times bigger than the Radeon 5870. I'm really impressed.

How can you know how loud the fan is? The card itself is shorter than 5870 in lenght and have the same height. More wats yes, but 3 billion transistors, Cuda, 3d vision, physix.. no wonder maybe?

This card is for enthusiasts by the extreme. Most people who buy this will most likely plan to sli it.

480 SLI cooling system. Extra charge with second card. Some assembly required.

Again you're showing aggressive behavior caused by lack of knowledge. You link that when you could link costum water coolers, or the dual fan version that will be released in a month. What a joke!..

^^oh, i thought it would be more like this, but this must be just the 470

Close, a helicopter is 120-160 db, the fan on this card@55% is 45 db, from 75 cm away with the case door closed

You people? What do you mean you people? is this a derogatory remark to people of a certain race?

Everyone has forgot that GTX 480 has not published any NON-reference designs yet. A new design with better fans and thermal etc and we can eventually see normal temps. As well as more silent fans ^^

I sympathise with you people who cant afford much. But in order to be an enthusiast you'll need a wallet and more than a decent job.

Edit: Palit's spelling sucks.. but everyone has forgot that GTX 480 has not published any NON-reference designs yet. A new design with better fans and thermal etc and we can eventually see normal temps.

So what is your job?
