Hey, you there, wanna check out some unreleased new hardware from NVIDIA?
Donanimhaber, the same site that brought us
early (and
accurate) specs of the GTX 470 and 480, is back with the above shot of an ASUS-built GTX 465 that is intended to entice the more mainstream crowd into the Fermi party. Essentially a GF100 with its wingtips trimmed, this'll offer the same 607MHz graphics and 1,215MHz processor clock speeds of the 470, but comes with a narrower 256-bit memory interface, a tamer 3.2GHz effective memory clock, 352 rather than 448 CUDA cores, and -- happily -- lower power requirements. This word is also corroborated by
Bit-tech, whose scribes expect a launch at the start of
Computex. The Turkish site also has news of a GTX 460, which they say will show up in the middle of July with 768MB of GDDR5, while also being "cheaper and slower" than the 465. Hit the
Hexus link below for some early benchmarks of the latter card.

And they also stripped it of the feature of being a nice space heater during the winter.
whats a good card thats around $100?
@CommentSystem
HD4850, on newegg.
After that, sapphire Vapor-X or MSI Hawk 5770.
@guideXD Good choice. I've been treated well by my HD 4770 as well -- fits within the power constraints of a Shuttle XPC, so long as you're willing to chop up your case for the large heatsink.
@CommentSystem tomshardware.com periodically compares cards based on price/performance, you should check it out.
@guideXD
Yep, I got a 4850 HD, for the price of $100, it is quite the beast.
Same XBAWKS HUEG heatsink, same XBAWKS HUEG price tag.
does this version still come with WOODSCREWS?
@guideXD you do understand you made HUGE mistake?

oh rly?
@Dking7 pwned :P
@guideXD
This isn't 4chan. Stop acting like an idiot and stop linking to encyclopedia dramatica. This card looks to be nVidia's actual entry into this generation. The size is pretty much the same as every modern graphics card, the price is meaningless until we see some benchmarks.
I'm all for some good trolling on the basis of nothing at all, but keep that crap to 4chan and not here. This is a site for logical discussion, not meme's and copypasta.

SON, I am disappoint.
"This card looks to be nVidia's actual entry into this generation. The size is pretty much the same as every modern graphics card, the price is meaningless until we see some benchmarks."
But honestly,
the size is 10 inches long which is around the same as a 5850, considering this is an apparent 'big downscale' of the GTX470 which performs quite similar to the HD5850 i would say it will be fairly weaker. At the same time it seems to have around the same amount of stream processors but runs at a clock speed below the 5850 and far below the 5830, it will CERTAINLY have less texture units and perhaps the same amount of ROPS as the 5850.
Once again it should cost a tremendous amount per performance, considering the sheer size of the fermi chip alongside the fact that the PCB is going to be ~10 inches long and the dual slot massive heatsink. On top of this all it needs two six pin power connectors, hence it consumes more power then the 5850.
Once again, just another crap card marketed at fanboys.
@guideXD
mod reckons this'll be 5770 performance for 5850 money. And mod has was right about the GTX 470, 480 and HD5000 series.
nV needs to move to 32nm and fast.

Won't be buying unless you can cook eggs on them.
If only DX11 games would start coming out already. I feel that my 5870 is a babysitter who's being paid just to talk on the phone with her boyfriend...
@MegaJapan
I hear Metro 2033 is pretty good. I definitely can't run it with my current setup, but if you have a DX 11 card, it's supposed to look amazing.
I assume they compare to the ATI HD5770 and 5750. Which come with 1GB DDR5 and Eyefinity support. it will be a hard sale for nvidia if those early benchmarks are correct and the at the price of almost $300.
For a second there i thought it was a phone!!! I got all excited..... Really looks like a phone is your just scrolling by no?
How about a card for under 200$? Like the good ol' 9800GTX
Nothing here nor at the bit-tech article mentions DX11. I'll pass.
@LANjackal I'm pretty sure the entire GTX 4xx series is DX11, but here's a comparison table for proof: http://www.hexus.net/content/item.php?item=24628
im still waiting for the single slot gtx 470 and 480
@Mr Hett
You know you'll be waiting forever, right?
@archkron, acctually not. Galaxy is working an a single slot 470 solution. It will be officially introduced at the Computex in early June.

@SSD
I hope you have a good sound system then, 'cause you're gonna need it to drown this out:
"With the card being single slot, the fan will have a lot of work to do to keep the card within a reasonable temperature window – on our test of the reference GTX470 design, we saw a load temperature during Crysis of 93ºC, so expect the Galaxy fan to run fast and loud. Also, at a 10 inch length of PCB (0.5 inches over the reference design), a sufficient length case would be required. The single slot nature of the card will in no doubt appeal to folders (who don't mind using an open test-bed), wishing to stick six or seven of them into a single motherboard with a couple of power supplies to boot."
@archkron, I would never buy this card. Just pointing out that it will be available.
omg when i saw this i thought it was a dual gpu card then i saw the price and was like damn it. im waiting for a dual gpu fermi card i got a quad core but only one pci card so i gots to gets a 600$ card no sli fo me.

There will most likely be a dual-GPU based off the GF104 platform, the GTX 465 in particular (GTX 490?). If so I'll probably be picking one of these up.
@Wag thanks for the heads up.
Come on, it's got carbon fibre on it, it has to be good.
I'm glad to see NVIDIA expanding the woodscrews family.
