    Gtx 485?

    KitGuru has heard that nVidia’s been through the first iteration of the GTX480 with a fine tooth comb, to create a GTX485 product that can run at least 20MHz more on the core clock, with improved cooling and performance. It’s also worked through some neat driver improvements that will also help.......

    maybe its a new silicon revision, i dont why they would rename it without having the full 512 shaders though, and i would doubt that it actually runs cooler and dose not just have a higher fan speed or better fin design i doubt that its lower wattage or that it will be significantly different but maybe

    They made it up. See NVIDIA section for more info. *facepalm* The card they show is an EVGA GTX470 SC.

    Its a freaking joke. And the picture







    Its from evga's GeForce GTX 470 SuperClocked+ w/ High Flow Bracket and Backplate ....


    Kitguru is a freaking joke, with made up news to steal web traffic.

    Created like 3-4 months ago from someone trying to make some quick bucks from this domain.

    And from so called "article":
    KitGuru has heard that nVidia’s been through the first iteration of the GTX480 with a fine tooth comb, to create a GTX485 product that can run at least 20MHz more on the core clock, with improved cooling and performance. It’s also worked through some neat driver improvements that will also help. Nice.
    Are those guys making those news, stupid or what?


    Pathetic hoax site.

    heres my guess:
    they are talking about some gf104, which is running at 20 mhz core clock higher than a gtx 480, conveniently not mentioning the fact that its lacking in many other ways.

    I'm sure Nvidia is planning on replacing the 480 with a slower card...

    Time to correct some misinformation. The "Turbo" button featured on many older systems did not overclock your processor.

    - With "Turbo" turned on, your CPU runs at its normal rated clockspeed.
    - With "Turbo" turned off, your CPU is underclocked below its rated clockspeed. This was done so that clockspeed-dependent applications would not run too fast on newer computers.

    Thus, "Turbo" is a bit of a misnomer. I suppose a more accurately named "make my computer slower" button wouldn't have caught on as well with consumers

    Improved cooling? Can just always buy a non-reference card...

    right... 20mhz... improved cooling over 480? improved how? a 2000cfm fan?
    that heatsink is as good as it gets for that size... the only way to make it better is more airflow or making it bigger than the card itself
