This is What Leadtek's Fermi Cards Look Like

By

All the board shots so far of video cards based on Nvidia's upcoming GPU look the same.

Leaktek is the latest semi-confirmed OEM to be producing graphics cards using Nvidia's GeForce GTX 480 and GTX 470 GPUs. Like all the rest of the initial batch of GF100-based products, Leadtek will be using Nvidia's reference design right down to the cooler.

GTX 470:

Hang tight just a couple more days, as all will be revealed on Friday March 26 evening.

    that 480 looks like it has a v10 under the hood...

    we are entitled to at least one REAL benchmark, 2 more weeks left if all goes well..

    2 more weeks? i heard the release was this friday, the 26th. or is that when the curtain is lifted, not when we can get our hands on one.

    Which would you rather have?

    Fermi: Tons of hype, no benchmarks, nothing.

    Radeon 5xxx: No hype, killer performance in my rig as I type.

    I believe the choice is clear.

    Okay, I forgive you guys for the yet more pictures. If I had that 470 I'd leave my case open 24/7. God I love gold.

    Marcus, tell me, you guys already have cards and have already benchmarked them, but are simply not allowed to put up any results yet, right? We'll see them all by Monday, right?

    hype like this is good because of all the hype people are going to buy this regardless, then sell them because we know the performnace is similar to 5870s and that also an optimised nvidia benchmark, lol the 26th is the day they released, im in NZ should i be the first in the world to get one?
