Should be bundled with the following, 1 piece of nuclear powerplant... im honestly thinking Geforce FX/5800 mess up all over again..

Looks like the 480 gets seriously hot, I wouldn't want one of those in an overclocked rig...
average 97 under load at standard clock, so yeah overclocking with stock cooler might be out of question :)
and they even scaled down both 480 and 470, as the yeild of good chips able to run at full capacity was to low to be able to fulfill any demand on the market.. i guess they are saving those chips for a 490 or something on a later date..
They perform quite nice, but its still below what i expected, they postponed the card so many times and hyped it so hard... its what 6-7 months since Radeon 5000 series, thats like half a generation delayed, and it still gets beaten by the 5870.. not what i expected, but its gonna rock in Folding without doubt, but then again, its gonna be seen on ones powerbill.
