In fact it's an Oc'ed GTX480.

15-17% faster than GTX480 at 1920*1200.

 

Simply what the 480 should have been from the beginning.

 

not bad at all, I have a feeling it'll get owned by the 6970 though, we'll soon see

 

It is the 480, it was delayed over a year

 

That Looks One Sweet Gfx Card...Anyone any idea on a launch date/availability. My 4870's are feeling old and im going with nv for the upgrade.

 

would like to see some more voltage mods OC's

 

wait i show you how to kill one in 1/2 hour or how mine overclock lol

 

Actually it is only 13% faster on average at 19x12.

Ranges from average
5% @ 1024 x 768
10% @ 1280 x 1024
12% @ 1680 x 1050
14% @ 2560 x 1600

So all in all 10% more than a stock 480 across all resolutions.

Across all resolutions same as stock 5970. Only slightly slower at 1920 and 2560 up 2% and 5% same at 1680 x 1050.

The cooler on the other hand does look very nice. The only thing that would make me buy them. I think I will be waiting to see what the red team does. I don't really need another 10% performance. Then again need is not the point.

 

Actually, it's the GTX380, and it's over a year late.

 

Gimme NAO!:

 

that voltage limiter for OCCT and Furmark looks a crappy way to overcome power consumption issue, as it forces gpu to downclock for a sec or two and then back to full speed.. that doesn't look so healthy imo.


edit: metro2033 1024x768 >> 1280x1024 what a fps hit, lol forget 1920x1200..

its ok in the rest, that higher texture fill rate helps a little..


looks like custom cooled 470gtx is the best performance=$$ ratio, cheap and oc'able to at least stock 580gtx speeds.

 

Yeap so it is, forgot they renamed it, and now done it again

 

The card doesn't look bad at all. 5970 performance with a single gpu and less power consumption.

 

The card seems great, but the questions is:

Are there any games to take advantage of the card?

 

Or maybe it´s the future GTX 680, we can´t be too carefull with Nvidia rebranding...:roll:

 

48 ROP's

 

Probably not, unless you are really into Metro 2033, and I mean REALLY INTO IT lol...

Very happy with my GTX 470. I just want that damn 262 driver set lol!.

 

They should have called it GTX485...how lame....guess it will be owned by HD6970
