i hear you, "castrated" was probably the wrong wording. i just meant a trimmed down fermi fitting the mobile needs.

however, even though people make fun of fermi's heat and power draw, these are really things that'll be interesting about 480m and i'm curious whether nvidia is able to reduce power draw and heat of the mobile parts that much or not.
