We'll know soon enough, I don't think one site being shorted is enough to remotely quantify a shortage.

However I don't expect any card in this segment to be high volume to begin with.

Here is the unboxing of asus gtx 590 which original uploader removed from tube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Bn92O4l4XzQ

limited number of samples for the same reason. At least AMD is helping us a lot lately

Very sad

**Kristoferr** · 03-23-2011, 03:43 PM

Its going to be a paper launch. A very soft paper launch...

Once in a while everybody have to spend their hard earned Benjamins to be able to test a new and expensive hardware

If you can't get it for free then buy it.....or skip it

No.

There will be quite a few reviews from my understanding. Both of reference cards and products from EVGA, ASUS, etc, etc.

Cause it's easier to get all of NVIDIA's partners to send us cards while AMD partners usually drag their feet a bit before sending. So it's very hard to coordinate a AMD GPU roundup.

Hopefully that will change soon.

So... non-reference coming ?

It is very rare to see a non-reference design launched alongside a new card.

**tbone8ty** · 03-23-2011, 04:35 PM

well i have to say im pretty impressed....

the gtx 590 is much shorter and quieter than a HD 6990

it just looks sexy! the HD 6990 not so much

Indeed ... but with your words what i understand is that non-reference products from both Asus and EVGA ( and etc :P ) will be launched... i'm not saying tomorrow of course ...

But it's inevitable ... although the GTX590 "works" ... the fact is that with 0.875vid and temps at full around 70's ... don't give much free space for Oclocking and this card gets a really bad handicap ... and before the card is known as "the slowest of the 2" ... there must be some offers with more radical cooling ... and, who knows, better power phase design?

But i must see how the over-volting will impact in the core frequency ...

Yeah and I'd guess you'll be doing most of them.

What's that supposed to mean?

NVIDIA played it well this time around IMO. They had their partners seed anyone who didn't get a reference board. Unfortunately, there are never enough cards to go around to every publication that wants one.

Also, from my understanding it will be a hard launch.

**Postmodum** · 03-23-2011, 04:46 PM

why?

Just to compare I run the same AvP bench as in the GTX 590 video with my HD 6990

HD 6990 117.8 Avg FPS (830/1250MHz default clocks)
GTX 590 105.2 Avg FPS ( clocks unknown)

I really like the idea of this card for GPU computing (# cores really matter). It lets you have 4 GPUs in a 2 slot budget system (LGA 1156).

Can anyone explain how the fan can cool the card when it's not even sitting on a heatsink? It seems like it would suck hot air from one heatsink into the other one.

I'd be willing to bet that throwing a fan on top of each heatsink/vaporchamber would allow overclocks up to stock GTX 580 speeds.

Great find ! Thanks again cold2010

**tbone8ty** · 03-23-2011, 06:16 PM

the dBa and FPS graphs are the same

**Lanek** · 03-23-2011, 06:34 PM

looking at the photos, it's a little bit hard to believe the 5cm difference between both cards.. it look like there's 1.5cm difference max.
