Cebit 2010: Nvidia still says no
We managed to get a picture of Nvidia's GTX 480 GPU, although Nvidia strictly forbade its partners to show it. Honestly, it was just a matter of time before some leaks would start to appear.
We saw both of the PCBs and we can confirm that the GTX 470 will have less memory than the GTX 480 or to be precise, it has less memory chips. Nvidia has somehow marked all the cards that were sent to partners in order to keep the guys out of Nvidia's wrath we have cropped the picture down to the GPU.
We saw the both cooling solutions and we are pretty sure that these are final designs as the GTX 480 had the same four heatpipe cooler that we wrote about yesterday. As the GTX 470 has the lower TDP there will be no heatpipes coming from the top of the card, but other than that, the cooler should be similar.
Enjoy the pictures.
