So, the NDAs have been lifted and the reviews are up on the sites.

Looks like a very good card, but why 580?

Why isn't it a GTX 490 or something?

Perhaps becasue it was slated as being a power hungry radiator when it came out. Dunno, maybe it was just to try and distance itself as it's a completely different card.

Haven't read through much of the reviews but it looks like it's good enough to start a good ol' price war. :D

It's a new core for the gpu not a speed boost/revision
