Product Gallery GeForce GTX 580

Alright, first photo coming right at ya... the packaging. Which we always show you so you know what to look for in the stores. Has anyone been to a store lately, or all we all ordering on-line these days?

So, above you can see the GeForce GTX 580, the Inno3D OC SKU. It will become available for roughly 499 USD/475 EUR.

Inno3D placed a rather colorful sticker on the product though, way too busy/flashy IMHO. I say grab a hairdryer and tear that sucker off. In the bundle you'll find all the regulars like manual, driver CD, DVI converter, one 6-pin PCIe PEG power converter to Molex and also Inno3D included a mouse mat.
Overall a nice and dark looking card. Let's look at the card from several different viewpoints. The GTX 580 card is quite good looking with the black colored monitor connectors and then that new cooler. This is vapor chamber based by the way. One chamber on the GPU leads directly to aluminum fins where the fan will blow air to cool it off. The cooling works decent, but the biggest plus... it's very silent as our tests will show you.
In this review we'll look at the GeForce GTX 660 Ti from Inno3D, it's their all new GeForce GTX 660 Ti iCHILL version and to date is one of the most impressive graphics cards in the 660 Ti range we have tested.
Inno3D GeForce GTX 580 OC review
We review the Inno3D GeForce GTX 580OC. Despite a very high price tag the product seems to become a nice success. As such directly at launch several models based of this SKU where already announced, e.g. the regular clocked models, factory higher clocked models, liquid cooled models. This OC edition, in particular this is a reference GeForce GTX 580 that has been clocked faster to 820 MHz on the core where it also welcomes a nice bump on the overall memory frequency.
Inno3D GeForce GTX 460 OC review
We test and review the Inno3D GeForce GTX 460 OC. The Inno3D GeForce GTX 460 OC model we test today flexes the GPU and memory muscle all the way up towards a rocking core of 750MHz, the shaders to 1500 MHz and the GDDR5 to 3800 MHz (effective). Armed with a 2-year limited warranty, Inno3D is trying real hard to not only bring a nice custom board to the market, but tries to release pre-overclocked models at a fairly normal pricing, yet with a hefty overclock. And whenever there's 'overclock' in the branding .. there is of course Guru3D.com
Inno3D GeForce GTX 480 iChill Black Series review
We test and review the Inno3D GeForce GTX 480 iChill Black Series. This GeForce GTX 480 graphics card is liquid cooled. With a liquid cooled loop you can bring down temperatures towards roughly 50 Degrees (under full load), that's roughly 40 degrees less than the reference cooler offers. Obviously you'll need a proper water-cooling setup to add this card to but yeah, today we'll review the i-ChiLL GeForce GTX 480 Black Series equipped with a liquid cooling block. In the package we'll spot a "full cover" water-block that is responsible for cooling down the GPU, Voltage Regulators, I/O chip, memory modules, and other critical components.
