S!
Will be an interesting test, getting a nVidia 480GTX for a spin. Will run tests with it compared to my 5870HD and see. Maybe barbeque some meat in the process or keep my coffee mug hot   Seriously speaking, will be interesting to test the card. Brand is PNY.

interesting info/opinions here. lots to think about.
Flaker35M, good luck with your -480. Do you own "Rise of Flight"? That might be a good test of your new card, probably more so than testing IL2 (multi-core usage, and a powerful GPU) imo. Flyby out

Well there's rumours flying around the net that ATI have already got the Southern Islands chip (6XXX series?) ready and may have engineering sample cards ready in just over a month. Mind you, they are rumours

S!
Will post ASAP when I get the card, they are quite far and between at the moment. So propably next week I will get it  Gonna test it with Rise Of Flight, IL-2 Sturmovik, Metro 2033, S.T.AL.K.E.R. - Call Of Pripyat, EVE Online etc. The games I play As of the new 6XXX cards, would be interesting if those showed up now Might stir up the competition a bit And that would be good for us end users don't you think

Rise of Flight might be a good test for sure... Though there is something about their art I don't like... IMO.

Apparently an issue is with noise on the 480GTX
But if the cards kept in a cool case the temps don't get up there, I've not noticed the temps over 75' yet and its quiet. But I don't overclock, never seen the need too.

S!
Alpha, you got a 480GTX? Which brand? I chose between Asus and PNY, the latter I favored because of previous good impression with my GeForce I had earlier.
