That sapphire is the ugliest card I have seen. No wonder it's cheap. Rebates I never have time for it. I rather pay one set price and that's done.

Techreport review is up. As expected, it's 99% the speed of the gtx480 with lower noise levels and equal power draw to the gtx470.

$350 is getting the same performance levels as $500 did this past April!

Interesting, it is identical to the 480 in performance only quieter and takes 50W less power, and costs $350. That's going to put the pressure on the AMD 6950. Should also mean there are some very cheap 480's going - given their high noise/power you'd have to charge < $300 for anyone to consider getting one over a 570.

looks like its ~ abit slower than the 480, uses less power than the 480, has a better cooling system.

Techreports review had it about equal with the 480 in performance. Cooling, noise, power draw is close to the 5870.

That's an amazing price! ~GTX480 performance with a lower power draw and quiet operation for ~$330 is a GREAT deal! Props to nVidia! :thumbsup:

yeah as usual Fudzilla is full of crap. Techreport stated very clearly that Nvidia told them $349 is MSRP.

techpowerup lists the msrp at $329


what really matters is street prices and I wouldn't start evaluating those until a few weeks after the AMD 69X0 series launches. Assuming this card is competitive with the 6950, I would start to give it consideration at the $250 and less mark.
