Title: GeForce GTX 280 info here

Last screenshot.. :dribble: Anyone else feel it get hot in here or is that just me.. Lol. 512 Bit memorybus? That's what I've been asking for this whole time. 1 Gig of GDDR3 memory? More then enough for even the mightiest 30in gaming monitor. Quote from another area of the site "We are told that this thing runs cool during idle and runs much faster than 9800GX2". Now the real question, when can we see this thing in our computers, and how much will it set us back?

That thing will cost a fortune, and finally a picture where it is assembled. No Direct X 10.1 support?, that's a bit wierd. But looks like a good card, hopefully I won't cost as much as I suspect

EDIT:

"CJ let us know that GeForce GTX 280 will be sold for $649 while GeForce GTX 260 will be sold for $449 at the time when they are launched on June 17th. Also we got to know that the price to AIC partners is $485 and $325 for GTX 280 and 260 respectively so there is a tidy sum to be made by their partners. As our previous article has suggested, the GPU cost alone is $100-$120 and so Nvidia isn't making as much money as they would love to. As such, they will try to lower cost by going 55nm."
