Gainward præsenter optimeret GTX 470




Med alt fokus på GTX 480 og Ati kortene har Gainward i ubemærkethed lige så stille optimeret på eget design af GTX 470, og skulle ifølge egne målinger være op til 15% hurtigere end Ati 5870 og hele 37% hurtigere end 5850




Og hvordan har de så lige gjort det? Ved at forlænge kortet til 10.5 inches fra Nividia reference på 9.5 har de optimerede kreds layoutet på kortet. Dette skulle give en lavere varmeudvikling. Og med en bedre køleløsning er der således fundet mere headroom til OC.

8 cm double bearing fans, which impr
thermal characteristics and significantly red
noise at full load. Even better, the card is ge
