Ok, but seriously, I just ordered 2 GTX 480 SOC :|

**NOTE TO EVERYONE** if you seriously thinking about skimping on the £25 to the get gigabyte GTX 480 over the Asus standard GTX 480, just pony up the extra £25, your ears will thank you for it, because MY GOD ARE THE STOCK COOLERS LOUD!!! (had GTX 470's in SLI so I know how bad they are - went backed to HD5850 x-fire cos of the noise).

I was refering to the Non OCed Gigabyte GTX 480 for £225 :\

Usually I don't bother with OCed versions because they aren't overclocked much at all, but 120mhz over stock is rather tempting, especially for only £15 more.

As someone who's just put a Thermalright Shaman and G2 VRM on his Asus 480, I must say the Gigabyte deal dis-pleases me.

That's 580 performance for £230! The new 480 chips are much less leaky and hot than their early examples, I can't get mine to use more than 230 watt with 1150mv and 850mhz GPU clocks rammed up its jacksie..... Max temp 67c.

*Curses*

sorry but 480s arent 580s
