I agree. The Cooler Master CMStacker 830 case that was ordered with the build didin't come with all the products it should of. And they didn't supply me with the SLI bridge :glare:

I've got to say I'm pretty disappointed with these speeds, though not surprised given all the rumored issues nVida was having with Fermi. At this point I think I'll hang on to my 8800GTX a bit longer, and see how the dust settles.
AMD probably has something up it's sleeve for Fermi's hard release... I'm thinking something akin to the 8800GT & GTS G92 releases after the R600 came out – except this time AMD's got the advantage.

This is a huge step forward for the industry. I'm def excited for the 485, 28nm, probably 32 more shaders (512), and probably clocked much higher (800 core, 1600 shaders, 1250 memory anyone?).
Found this at Tweaktown, looks pretty promising. Again, we all need to see consumer reviews.

XFX has chosen not to ship GTX 470 or 480 cards.
That is a slap in Nvidia's proverbial face.

tomshardware.com said it takes more power than the faster dual gpu cards so how does that make sense....
imo theres no need to spend an extra 250 or so bucks on this card when you get an ATI that runs cooler less power and more bang for your buck. All in all like most people I am very disappointed with Nvidia especially when they have had an extra 6 months to see what the Radeons are doing and they still fall short... The only reason to get the GTX480 is if you want the best of the best and money is no option and you have the power supply to support it otherwise I see most people staying with ATI.
