Anyone running one yet? My wife got me one for Christmas and I was just wondering what others are seeing with this new card. Getting the Superclocked version from Newegg.

Eh the 580 is a refresh card of the 480. I'll let you decide

Enjoy the new shiny card though! The fermi chipset is a beast.

I want one as well Alan! Only reason I didn't really "click" with the 480 is the jet engine fans and hot as in h... temps.
My neighbour has 2 x 480 in SLI. Everytime he starts gaming, FS or other, his house almost lift off the ground.
First time I heard it I looked out and expected to see a VC-10. biggrin

Well Norm, my wife doesn't work outside the home right now and I am the only bread winner but here is the way I look at it... I make the living and she makes it worth living. She knows how much I love this hobby and as long as I'm not totally out of control she supports me.

Its the top of the heap as far as video goes Alan, I hope you have a good system
to go along with it. I envy you though, be sure and let us know how it is smile

Rather than the video card the wife and I are mutually enjoying an Xbox Kinect
for our 'early' present. Giving me a bit more exercise than endless simming does smile

The Kinect? Its a whole different world, I'm limited in how long I
can play cuz it wears me out smile Its still so new that there's a limited
amount out for it, but there's a lot of cool things on the horizon
including a Star Wars game early next year. It takes Wii a step
further, I'm enjoying it so far. You can tell by how many places
are showing sold out already that its gonna be a christmas hit smile
