Now i was reading about the 570 and it has 320Bits of Bus , while the GTX480 has 384 bits , that doesnt matter since is very little different right ?

the GTX570 was reference clocked so that it is effectively on par with the GTX480, yes 320-bit is less but the memory is clocked a tad more aggressively and the memory controller on GTX500 series cards allows for higher clocks too. since you wont overclock this doesn't really matter anyway, all you need to know is it delivers GTX480 performance while cooler and quieter and using a considerable amount less power.
