GeForce GTX 570 expected next week

A product folder from Palit reveals the GeForce GTX 570 will be released on December 7th. This card features the GF110 GPU with 1 SM disabled, it has 480 CUDA cores, a 732MHz core, 1464MHz shaders and 1280MB GDDR5 clocked at 3800MHz. The card features a 320-bit memory bus, 152GB/s memory bandwidth and a TDP of 225W. Pricing is rumored to be under $400, while performance is expected to be similar to the GeForce GTX 480.

"As expected, the GTX 570 features GF110 with 1 SM disabled, a total of 480 CUDA cores - much like the GTX 480. Like the GTX 470, the GTX 570 has 1 MC disabled, for a 320-bit memory interface mated to 950MHz 1280MB GDDR5. The memory bandwidth is 151.9 GB/s, well below the GTX 480. However, the GTX 570 is clocked at a healthy 732 MHz core, 1464 MHz shaders. Power consumption is rated at 225W. Surprisingly, the GTX 570 requirements lists a 6+6-pin power connector configuration, which indicates NVIDIA may be counting on its power monitoring circuitry. This could limit overclocking, however."
