Regardless, we all know that dual GPUs almost never scale past 90% efficiency, and the HD5870 was easily able to surpass the HD4870X2.
Considering the completely revamped geometry engine in the Fermi cards, along with a straight up doubling of CUDA cores (relative to the GTX280) and revamping of lower level architecture, you'd expect the GTX480 to easily surpass a GTX295.
I think the cooler for the GTX 480 is horribly ugly, but that cooler on the leadtek GTX 470... DO WANT.

Personally I like how they look.
i want to know those settings, bull shit until i find those out.
Settings matter. bottlenecks are obvious at certain resolutions.. so if it was 2560, i wouldn't be surprised they all did close together.

This is a 480 running with 480 cores, not the normal 512. and it seems that Fermi is good with higher res.
And by the way, the GTX 295 is to Nvidia what a 4890X2 could have been to ATi. Two of their best GPUS on one board.
But why is res and other stuff blurred out?

1920x1200. 4x MSAA. no AF
pretty high if you ask me.
i7 at 3.3 GHz, 6GB DDR3 ram at 1400, timing at (7-7-7-?).

I know that the 480 is running with 480 cores, the GTX 280 had 240 stream processors, so twice as many stream processors are present in the 480.
Also the GTX295 was not at all like a 4890X2, it was running two GTX275s (approximate equivalents), not two GTX280s.

If anything it'd be more like an HD4860X2

That makes those benches even more unbelievable. Are we supposed to believe that while AMD managed a greater than 100% increase, Nvidia hasn't been able to even reach 100% increase, despite adding in more than twice the hardware, architectural upgrades and months of extra development time?
If that's true we're looking at a long period of AMD reign and very high prices and consumer shafting.
overclock that 920 to 4 to try to remove the bottleneck.

Regardless of how dual GPU cards of past perform, that is in line with what nvidia has been advertising, granted, a little underwhelming, but in line, with their 5 - 10% performance advantage over the 5870. If you were expecting more then that is very much your problem, not nvidia's, assuming the benchies are legit of course. I for one can't wait to see how this unfolds and ati's counter to the fermi release (5890? 5990?)

True, but look at the price comparisons: $500 GTX 480 vs $400 HD5870, $350 GTX 470 vs $300 HD5850. If these benchmarks are right (and I hope they aren't) then ATI doesn't have to do much to counter these cards.

I agree that if things continue as they appear, ATI will keep the upper hand here, but in the end, if these figures remain true and the 480 is the most powerful single GPU card available then nvidia will market it as such and just like everything else, consumers can and do pay a premium for the best. It may not seem like it from the way nvidia has been running things lately, but their goal is to make money. Unless you're one to blindly hope that things will work out in your favor, this much should be expected.
More pretty pictures of the 480. Blame garry's broken media tags for the hugeness.

Never woulda noticed that. They didn't seem to hide what it's designed after; you can see the windows and thin red line on the back for the lights...
uh, you can clearly see the windows of car on the card itself. you can even see a taillight.
still looks good though
Voltage tweaks on MSI cards too:

also, ninja'd
It looks noisy
Don't like the curves on the nvidia cards. The monolithic builds of the 9800GX2 and 58xx are much nice and subtle, in my opinion.
Damn, if i fit that heatsink-fan on a 920 i might be able to OC it to over 4.5 GHz.
