More and more photo's on GeForce GTX 470/480 surface on the web. Today we spot a GeForce GTX 480 all nekked to the bare bone PCB, which reveals quite a lot of information really.
When we look at the GPU, the GF100 (GTX 480) uses the same package as the GT200 and G80. We spot 12 memory chips which are on a 384-bit wide memory interface. The GPU is powered by a 6-phase vGPU circuit then we spot a 2-phase Memory circuit. Power is drawn from an 8-pin and a 6-pin power connector. Monitor connectivity shows two DVI-D, and a mini HDMI connector. The PCB is roughly as long as reference GeForce GTX 280 cards. For the GTX 470 we know that the reference design board is expected to have 1536 MB (1.5 GB) of memory. Photo's are courtesy of tweakers.net
