GeForce GTX 480 and GTX 470 specs finally exposed
-
wow that looks like it will be a large video card...I don't know if I would be able to fit in my case
That's one of the other reasons I'm going for the 470 apart from price. It looks considerably smaller and I don't want to risk getting a 480 only to have it not fit lol.
I should be able to if I move my HDD, but even then it will still be a hard call

GTX 480: 10.5 inches
GTX 470: 9.5 inches

Same length as an 8800 Ultra then, and I remember that card was tight fit in my case when I was testing a friends to see if it had died.

GTX 470: 9.5 inches
Well my card is a 9800gt which is 9.0 inches long. So the new cards will atleast be 1/2inch to 1 1/2 inch longer

hm.... don't count your chickens till they've hatched
If you don't like Nvidia, why do you just keep coming in every Nvidia thread with one liners like that?
every? hm... if i remember right thats what you were saying about the 5870, so someone has to play the devils advocate here (or something like that )

The end result is we get to buy better cards some time later this year.
As for now, I do not know as to why I need to buy new cards for anyway !

Intel and Nvidia are industry standard. If you are an enthusiast and want an absolute top of the line product, Nvidia is the brand to go with. ATI is a generic and more affordable option, not saying the performance is bad, but substandard when refering to "top of the line"

$499 US for a 480... after currency conversion and re-sellers adding their mark up, plus the initial supply will outweigh demand - that equates to ouch in AUS dollars.
They'll cost around $1100 AUD, which is approximately $1000 USD.
Ordering from folks in US will save me at least $400 USD.
