They are hard to find, and they have been so recently released so more owners are likely to arrive.

BTW please don't thread crap with Nvidia hate guys. Its pretty shitty to do that in a clubhouse as it is in all Nvidia discussion threads already. I am just stating this before it gets out of hand like always.

Card: EVGA GTX 470 SC

Opinion/Recommendations:
I would highly recommend anyone who will be purchasing a 470/480GTX card soon.
Try to get an EVGA one. The EVGA Cards come with a Lifetime Warranty, a free copy of Cryostasis PC Game and also 2 great overlocking programs which are: EVGA OC Scanner and EVGA Precision.

I have this card for a few days now, and I love it.
It's not noisy at all while playing games, unless you switch the fan speed to 80% and above.
My GTX 470SC is currently idleing at @ 48 Celsius.
This card is an awesome overclocker!!

Well, that's it for now. I will post more in this threat after using it for a few more days. But up till now, I couldnt be happier with the card.

I will post pics later this week.

Wish i had that kind of cash.

I may get one sometime next month, but i may wait to see if they release a revision of the series. Or, the 6 series is always an option.(if they are in fact releasing in the second half of this year)

Waaaaaazup guys?! Whos ready to volt-mod their card?!

http://vr-zone.com/articles/nvidia-geforce-gtx-470-voltage-modifications/8763.html

I'm not modding my 2 470's I'll be stepping them both up to 480's thanks to Evga's program. :D

Gratuitous shot:



Lets talk overclocking tools. Which is the best? I've yet to try Evga's Tuner but precision is nice. Anyone using MSI's Afterburner? I see it all over the place.

Theres also an overvolter app for all 400 series cards, I'll see if I can find a link.

I have been saving for quite some time before I pulled the trigger. Was going to grab a single 480, but with their delays, and the fact that with all my bills paid I had enough to cover the SLI, so here I am waiting for monday and the cards are minutes from my house:(

IS physics really off, or just a GPU-z screen issue? I get that to score you need them off, but can you run with it on?

I have been using Precision that came with the card. I would like to find a voltage app though. I tried Afterburner and it would not let me change the voltage:(

I've been eyeing this thread for the 480, but apparently no one posted about having got one till now.

I'm especially curious to see some benchmarking. I'm pretty sure the 470/480 will be pretty impressive in DX11 tessellation - any volunteers to post Unigine Heaven results in Binge's thread for some good comparisons?

Download and install
Run launcher and apply settings, click run again
The program will launch but you have to click Benchmark across the top to start.
Takes about 8 minutes and will stress your cards pretty well.
