Though it took the company a year longer than intended, nVidia has finally released a graphics card that can fully display the Fermi architecture's capabilities, and they're impressive. Whatever qualms we may have about its lack of DisplayPort or its ...
Abstract: NVIDIA came up with a new generation enthusiast-grade graphics card out of freaking nowhere. The GeForce GTX 580 is touted by its makers to be the single most powerful GPU, and an efficient GPU compared to the previous generation (if efficiency doesn't...
Substantial performance improvement over GTX 480, Large reduction in power consumption vs. GTX 480, Quieter than other cards in this performance class, Native HDMI output, Software voltage control, Support for DirectX 11, Support for CUDA / PhysX
Still not as power efficient as AMD's designs, Power draw limiter could complicate advanced overclocking, Still limited to two active display outputs per card, High price, DirectX 11 relevance limited at this time
NVIDIA's new GeForce GTX 580 feels to deliver what I would have expected from the original GTX 480. The card is blazing fast, especially in newer DX11 titles it often beats AMD's dual-GPU flagship Radeon HD 5970. This performance upgrade helps NVIDIA s...

On the whole, the GeForce GTX 580 delivers on much of what it promises. Power draw is reduced versus the GTX 480, at least at idle, and the card runs cooler while generating less noise than its predecessor. Performance is up substantially, between abou...
It was certainly no secret that GeForce GTX 480 fell short of Nvidia’s aspirations. Nevertheless, the 480 still managed to outpace AMD’s Radeon HD 5870 (I’m not sure the Radeon HD 5970 was ever really in that board’s crosshair). Nvidia armed the GeForc...
Equivalent or better performance compared to leading dual-GPU video card. Outstanding tessellation and DirectX 11 capabilities. Better managing noise and power.
Expensive. Won't fit in smaller cases. Requires two expansion slots, hefty power supply. New features make it difficult to discern actual power usage or temperature characteristics in certain apps.
Nvidia's new top-tier video card, the GeForce GTX 580, is the first to take full advantage of the Fermi architecture's capabilities—and it was well worth waiting for. ...
Excellent performance, Much quieter than other top-end cards, Supports 3D Vision add-on and physics/computation acceleration
Blocks an adjacent PCI slot, Requires six- and eight-pin PCI Express power connectors, as well as a robust power supply
The new single-GPU speed leader at the time of this review, the GTX 580 offers a noticeable, if not huge, performance increase over its GTX 480 predecessor. It also runs quiet. ...
Even though NVIDIA is only launching a single card today there's a lot to digest, so let's get to it.Since the GeForce GTX 580 arrived in our hands last week, we've been mulling over how to approach it. It boils down to two schools of thought: 1) Do we pr...
