480 looks pretty good for gaming and stuff (their main audience)

470 not so much surprised the faster shaders on the 470 dont amount to anything.

EDIT: Jeez man there is just too much FUD on this product. Was reading everywhere the 480 was using 1100 MHz shaders vice almsot 1300 MHz shaders on the 470 WTF. Now I see why the 470 is so much weaker...

480 cores on the 480 ... what happened to Firmi's 512 cuda cores ????? Damn, I hate the thought of having to live in ATI world for the foresessable future :(

In for your results though Rev, I would've pre-ordered too had I found a link, and may order one yet if the egg ever gets them back in stock..... someone pinch me and wake me up from this bad dream :scared:

monstrus result were with stock voltages and that was @ 900mhz core... if it were pushed with vcore...i think this will be ok... asus card owners might be in for a surprise...looking at the architecture..their drivers might be not fully optimized. damn i hate waiting..

Don't hate the game, hate the playa! Gonna find out if your correct tonight Duke, hold 'em tourney at 7pm for Maddy and I.
Also, don't loose to much sleep bout this release just yet. Shammy will pull out a ftw/classy version with major voltage control for extreme, and it will prolly eclipse the 5870 finally,....just gonna take some time. ATI will prolly respond with the 5890 in the interim,...there will be plenty of choices to cherry pick from, patience my large loobed pal.

was just lookin at the 480 ftw on evga website ... hydro copper looked like an EK waterblock. Wierdest thing was, NO EvBot port ??? wtf ??

Gutterz 03-27-2010 08:08 AM

Hydrocopper is swiftech same as they used for GTX285, GTX295. No EvBot since it is a reference design Nvidia card. Prolly be a few months before a non reference card comes out.

Yes, i agree...Time to wait and watch..I see that the Canucks review shows the 480 as one hot sucker..This prolly won't matter to the LN guys but their review is less than flattering...

Nvidida said these aren't true Firmi cards. Same design, but they are still working on the 512 core.
