*** NVIDIA 470/480 Series Thread ***

[Systemlord]

anyone see the Xbitlabs article of the 470 SLI owning the 5970?

That was an excellent review, those 470 SLI Fermi's did very well considering that these Fermi's are still in the first generation driver wise, while the 5970 has had almost a year of driver updates! Nvidia's revisions should be quite a bit better by the time the dual GPU card arrives or if it comes at all! Nvidia needs a new GPU cooler as the older design isn't adequate anymore, a complete redesign is needed!


Updated

Replaced by GF104 architecture


Nvidia's mainstream Fermi generation got cancelled. It's not tragic, as the promising GF104 architecture takes over and Nvidia's future mainstream as well as entry level chips will be based on this improved architecture.
