When we reviewed the GTX580 recently the main question we were left with afterwards was is it sufficiently good enough to justify the increase in price over the GTX480.There was no doubt that it is the ultimate single-GPU solution, and by quite some...

We must admit to being taken by surprise by the release of the GeForce GTX 570 1.3GB so soon after that of the GeForce GTX 580 1.5GB, but it certainly makes sense. With ATI dragging its heels for whatever reason over the HD 6900-series cards, Nvidia...

Where performance is concerned, the GeForce GTX 570 is very fast card. It might not be as quick as the GeForce GTX 580, but it is a great deal quicker than any single GPU offering ATI/AMD can throw at it right now. However, we were a bit disappointed...

Fermi done right The introduction of the GeForce GTX 570 GPU solidifies NVIDIA's high-end line-up for 2010. Sensible tweaks in the Fermi architecture and a revised cooler makes this second-rung 500-series card a genuinely better bet than the...

In a quieter, cheaper design, the GeForce GTX 570 offers performance comparable to the GTX 480—not long ago, the fastest single-GPU graphics card available....

With a new version of its flagship GPU, the manufacture of which is less problematic, NVIDIA has more room for manoeuvre and this is immediately noticeable with this new version of the GeForce GTX 580. NVIDIA hasn’t had to reduce the clocks on the...
