I wouldn't be suprised if we would see GF104-refresh..with smaller power consumption sooner or later. GF104 was rushed in to the markets and it's still A1-silicon .. first working version of that GPU. I think this is the first time when they put A1-GPU to cards that are sold to customers.

http://techpowerup.com/126702/ASUS_Working_on_ARES_II_Dual_GTX_480_Graphics_Accelerator.html Yippers.. Our friends at Asus are working on Mars II with two GTX 480 cards crammed in to one. It seems that they'll need three 8 pin power connectors for this one.. enough connectors for 525W :P...

Maybe they are naming these cards according to their 64-bit performance? GTX 465's 64-bit performance is 1/8 from it's 32-bit and GTX 460's 1/12. GTX 460 32-bit: 907 GFLOP GTX 465 32-bit: 855 GFLOP GTX 460 64-bit: 75.5 GFLOP GTX 465 64-bit: 106.9GFLOP Obviously this is not...

So Nvidia SLI still doesn't work unlike ATi Crossfire?

..I'd expect new high end card when they get A2-silicon ready for GF104..

Nice that Nvidia got GF104 right on their very first attempt..it's rare that they can get A1 version of GPU to cards that are actually sold. GF100's third version (A3) made it to 480, 470 and 465..and it doesn't work as well as it should. These GPUs that we see on these reviews were made on...

I've had both 5770 and GTX 260 216SP and GTX 260 was more silent in every occasion. On idle there's not much difference, but on load..oh boy that GTX 260 remained silent, but HD5770 made this loud "hum"

In EU countries: -Contact your shop. These shops have instructions for this RMA -Shop has to always pay those shipping costs, both ways. *If you have bought card from some other country than yourse you have to pay for that shipping initially. You have to place receipt of that shipping to to...

GTX 480 would be about 10-15% faster than HD5850

http://www.donanimhaber.com/GeForce_GTX_480_ATi_HD_5970e_yakin_performans_sergileyebilir-18363.htm GTX 470 - $500 - Would be only 20-25% faster than GTX 285 -> would lose against HD 5870 with clear margin - $100 more expensive than HD 5870 GTX 480 - $600 -Close to HD 5970 performance...

http://www.semiaccurate.com/2010/02/20/semiaccurate-gets-some-gtx480-scores/ So GTX 480 would be just 5% faster than HD5870. Not that great when you consider that GTX 480 is much more expensive to make than HD5970.

That May release would be the best case scenario. That Q2 last until July 31st . Also these are just high end models. No mainstream or anything on sight.

Nope They say that cost of one GPU is related to size of it. GF100 is smaller than G200, but bigger than G200b.

On otherhand if it's 15% faster than HD5870 now..how much faster will it be when they have release drivers ready?
