This GeForce GTX 480 is MSI’s top-notch graphics card, the ultime deluxe edition. This card comes with an impressive 16-phase VRM: 12 phases to feed the GPU, 3 phases for the memory and one phase for the PLL (Phase Locked Loop). The MOSFETs are copperMOS to offer a better heat dissipation. There are 3 voltage chech points for GPU, memory and PLL.
The GPU is factory-overclocked at 750MHz (reference: 700MHz) as well as the memory: 1000MHz instead of 924MHz real speed (see HERE for GTX 480 specs).
MSI GTX 480 Lightning should be priced at US $550.
With all these power connectors, it’s getting difficult to find a good PSU with the right number of power connectors for feeding a n-way SLI system…
just stupid, I mean – does this come with a free game/nuclear power plant
Yes maybe will nVidia start integrate a nuclear power cell inside GPU that’s an idea.
The card finally been reviewed, benchmarks look interesting. http://bit.ly/dv1f2H
