Blacky Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 We have been discussing the 480M for some time now on the Notebookreview forum (I hope you don't mind posting a link here): http://forum.notebookreview.com/sager-clevo/487376-pic-gtx-480m-3dm06-test.html At this point no one is sure how well the 480M will perform ... given that power efficiency is not very good for the GF100 core: http://www.techpowerup.com/reviews/Zotac/GeForce_GTX_465/30.html. It is funny how the 2x0 series which is 55nm is almost as power efficient as the 4x0 series which is 40nm. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
