I do believe you are correct.Originally Posted by GoldenTiger
As far as the 480 being potentially unlockable that would be pretty cool but not literally of course. I'd expect you'd need water / LN2 to tame it with the current heatsink with the full 512sp if the heat rumors are to be believed ( 92C in anything outside of furmark would be scary ) There is a reason the 5870 / 5970 are as long as they are ( cooling space )
I wish that vision surround would have been a hardware solution like eyefinity and not software. I'd bet a single 480 would do well with 3 displays for various reasons. The fact 2 will be required though is unfortunate. 3 1080p TN panels can be had for the price of a single high end display which offers way more desktop and gaming space for the money making 3 monitor gaming not nearly as far fetched today as it was years ago when it was matrox only territory and ungodly expensive ( I remember seeing my first 3x 19" 1280x1024 lcd setup years ago running MS flight sim and thinking that was completely insane heheh... )
Didn't they say it wouldnt be until April 6 that we'd see stock by the way or has this changed? I know they are launching at PAX but I do believe it was mentioned that it will take a week or so for availability ( due to shipping and such )
