Here's MSI with its GeForce GTX 480 offering, the MSI N480GTX. While it's clear that all GeForce GTX 400 series graphics cards, at least initially, will adhere to NVIDIA's reference designs, each manufacturer is throwing in a little something unique. MSI's offering speaks of "Military-class" components, though it's likely that NVIDIA's own choice of components fit MSI's definition of military-class, and the MSI Afterburner software. The software is advertised to work with the card to provide voltage control, advertising up to 15% of performance gains using it. Usual features include DirectX 11 support, support for PhysX, CUDA, 3D Vision Surround, 480 CUDA cores, 1536 MB of GDDR5 memory across a 384-bit memory interface, and connectivity which includes two DVI-D and a mini HDMI.

I'm suprised they are offering up to 15% performance gains from OC. If the reports of high temperatures are correct, this is a brave move to run with from launch.

Just wanted to ask.. isnt it that the first wave of cards come from one OEM card manufacturer?

Standard prices look like US $499, so it should be around that mark.
More expensive. Retailrs are going to try and rip people off before they come down to $499 just like ATI with no competition for 6months +. :shadedshu

All ATI Eyefinity 6 cards have this port, with adapters.

no. All ATI Eyefinity6 cards have Mini-DP (display port)... I don't recall any video card before these ever having mini-HDMI as a display out.
