it looks like Fudzilla was wrong claiming 18:01 eastern time. its actually 19:01(7:01 PM) so about 45 more minutes to go.

Personally, I am more interested how 470 will fare, specifically if it can bring near 480 perf when overclocked and how expensive it will be at launch. 5870 vs 480 is an interesting debate, but most 5850s seem to be able to OC enough to match or surpass stock 5870 performance. I can't see myself paying $500 for a similar performing part.

Again: what is it with all this with no AA and especially no AF bullcrap reviews...?

 

[Elixer]

I wonder if anyone would dare use FurMark to test just how hot the 480 can get?

I cant even get the page to load for the Anandtech 480/470 review...

Yes - and the answer is apparently 93C.

This won’t have any significant impact on the card, but if you’re like us your eyes will pop out of your head at least once when you see a GTX 480 hitting 98C on FurMark.

Global warming!
