MSI Shows off N480GTX Graphics Card
Here's MSI with its GeForce GTX 480 offering, the MSI N480GTX. While it's clear that all GeForce GTX 400 series graphics cards, at least initially, will adhere to NVIDIA's reference designs, each manufacturer is throwing in a little something unique. MSI's offering speaks of "Military-class" components, though it's likely that NVIDIA's own choice of components fit MSI's definition of military-class, and the MSI Afterburner software. The software is advertised to work with the card to provide voltage control, advertising up to 15% of performance gains using it. Usual features include DirectX 11 support, support for PhysX, CUDA, 3D Vision Surround, 480 CUDA cores, 1536 MB of GDDR5 memory across a 384-bit memory interface, and connectivity which includes two DVI-D and a mini HDMI.

At first I thought 1.5gb memory was kinda crap, but seeing how it's a single GPU system that's actually pretty awesome.

But agree you on that less would do the job and better. I'd still rather take too much paste than not enough. I've lifted up a few southbridge sinks on motherboards only to found out that these is paste just on half of the chip.
