Colorful Announces iGame GeForce GT 440 Series Graphics Cards
Colorful, one of the biggest NVIDIA graphics card suppliers in Asian market, announces two GeForce GT 440 models - iGame440 1G Ymir-U and iGame440 1G Buri-Slim. Both of these two cards are based on the same PCB solution, but with different coolers and clocks.
iGame440 1G Ymir-U has better performance, it uses the "shark" design on the cooler, which with pure cooper base and nickel plated heat-pipe, providing better thermal and 3D performance. The clock is setting at 850/3800MHz (core/memory), comparing to the reference edition 810/3600MHz, iGame440 has about 5% improvement.
iGame440 1G Buri-Slim is a single slot graphics card, uses Aluminum Wire Drawing on surface of the cooler shell, the speed of the PWM fan is 500-3000rpm, so that it could ensure the low noise level even in full-load. The clock of this card is setting at 810MHz/3600MHz.
Colorful says that these two cards will be exhibited in CeBIT2011 with other Colorful's products during March 1-5, and their booth is in K15, Hall 14.

That one card looks like the original 8800gt.
Really not feeling anything needed in the 5 series below the 560 TI, performance wise they're not really much of an improvement over the 4 series.
This is the exact same reason I haven't upgraded from my GTX 470, there is little point these days as the "next gen" barely represents a 20% improvement over the last gen. I am defo skipping both ATI and NV current gens and possibly even the next if again we see just 15-20% improvement or until my card can't play everything that I want to play maxxed out.
Now allow me to retort. What's the point you were making?
I apologize wholeheartedly to all of you and I promised to give penance.
