NVIDIA’s GeForce GTX 480 and GTX 470: 6 Months Late, Was It Worth the Wait?

HAWX
Ubisoft’s aerial action game is one of the less demanding games in our benchmark suite, particularly for the latest generation of cards. However it’s fairly unique in that it’s one of the few flying games of any kind that comes with a proper benchmark.
So far, NVIDIA’s leads keep increasing. With HAWX we’re up to a 20-35% lead for the GTX 480, and a 7-30% lead for the GTX 470. On the SLI/CF front however we have a slightly different story. NVIDIA is still in the lead, but their lead ends up shrinking here compared to the more demanding lead a single card has.

How'd you set the 4x + TrSS 4x mode in Battlefield BC2? I can't find anythign that resembles it in the nVidia panel at all to force it etc...Thanks!

Please do yourselves a favour, do not believe every paid review you see, and listen to actual users. In an unprecedented move of arrogance, nVidia has intentionally crippled the entire 400 series performance for anything but mainstream games. When 8000 series handily outperform the new 400, we have a problem. Check the following user discussions, and especially the last one from a developer.http://forums.nvidia.com/index.php?showtopic=18157...
