I think this is old news about the cooler change. Mr CD wrote about it some time ago. Some AIBs though might need more time.

I actually like their new heatsink, it appears to be better than 5870's one. I just hope the fan will not have to spin too fast to deal with the massive TDP.Quote:

this reminds me of approximations in maths.
you get closer and closer but never actually reach the point, only in theory you do :lol:
It might be a bad idea to purchase something immature. e.g. Windows Vista
Shall I wait for the refresh of Fermi?
How about waiting for reviews first? :rolleyes:
New news since there was speculation about change of specs.
"The GTX 480 comes clocked at 700MHz GPU, 1848MHz memory and 1401MHz for the shaders. The memory bus is 384-bit, which should go well with 1536MB of GDDR5 memory. As we already said before, the card’s TDP stands at 250W."

And for those of you waiting for a price cut from AMD

In theory some people already had the GTG 480 in November 2009. Even FudNews was talking about the November availability. There was only one small problem, they had to replace the wood screws due to overheating. LOLQuote:

12 april? this is very disappointing. They ask as if we are "ready", we are ready but it seems they are not and who knows where ever they will be.
everyone is taking the fudzilla post as fact? what are their sources for this delay all other search results for this delay all point back to fudzilla... we'll all see tomorrow...

26th march was stated to simply be when they will lift the NDA and demo the card at some event.
Im not taking it as a fact, but it isnt factual that it is being released tomorrow either.

There’s good news and bad news; the bad news is that the GTX 400 series has been pushed back to April 6th. The good news is that it’s only in reference to retail supply and not the actual NDA; so come the 26th of March we’ll all know what performance will be.
If you thought that you were going to pick one up retail that day though you where wrong, the original date for stock to be selling was the 29th but now it seems to be April 6th.
Toms Hardware there links to Shane Baxtor's blog, who is a tweaktown editor per google... this isn't any more plausible than any of the other rumors, or the "official" 26th one.Quote:
