I would hazard a guess that info is being kept tight and will be revealed sometime before Cebit is over from Nvidia itself.300 euro to 400 euro is a curiously wide number ... has NVIDIA simply not decided yet or are they simply not telling their AIBs yet?

Ah, I see now. I get the basic math of it, just didn't know if he had done any searching into a possible VAT% difference along with any other factors from cards that are on sale now (Would be a tad closer to real numbers I'd think.) And I'd guess 470 being at the least 350, with a high chance of it being 400$Silus said:He just added the direct conversions: ~400 USD (300 euros) with ~550 (400 euros) and divided by 2.
I'm still betting on 399 USD for the GTX 470.
Although costing 399 USD, doesn't exactly mean it will cost 300 euros. Quite the opposite. It will probably still cost 400 euros, as is usually the case: 399 USD is converted to 399 euros...
Found that right after I was puzzled about lack of editing and the explanation. Tried to find it before posting and failed. Thank you very much for the extra heads up though.rpg.314 said:/For the new member's sake

Sorry for the off-topic, but i still cant send PMs. Hey Silus! Nice to see someone from Portugal too

10 channels of memory, 320-bit bus: GTX470 I suppose.

So, the salvage SKU has it's own board design. Does that mean the 512SP board will be bigger/longer, like HD5850 and HD5870?

The thing has PCI-E 2.0 as requirement? Bummer, I was interested but I certainly won't upgrade my mainboard for a video card.
but isn't PCIe 2.0 inherently backwards compatible with PCI 1.x ? They both deliver 75W right ? Just 2.x upped the data per pin (well actually I think clock rate was doubled from 2.5Ghz to 5.0 Ghz from 1.0 to 2.0).. I mean it's not like when AGP 1.0 used 3.3v then 2.0 moved to 1.5 .. some users inadvertently killing their cards/systems by trying to use them together.
If that's the case then why put PIC-E 2.0 explicitly on the box as a requirement?
The only requirement I see is PCI Express or PCI Express 2.0-compliant motherboard.
The card gets more real, and a little more mysterious (who are Colourful)

And yes, it needs 6 pin+8 pin connectors

Whoops, you're right. Good to know that this P35 mainboard will last me another 2-3 years years.
Aside from PCI-E 2.0 the P35 chipset isn't really missing anything. I'm running a 45mn Yorkdale Quad Core OC'ed to 3.4 Ghz. Why on earth would I upgrade that? For a few % more CPU performance that I don't even need? The only thing I feel like upgrading is my GTX 260... and I really hope that Fermi doesn't suck.Like the way you put that NO2 boost system into your stock Smart car?
