Excellent Card w/ Issues. // Reviewed Post
By Luis G. Rodriguez
I wanted to revisit this post to be fair with this excellent card, below is my review rewritten to account for most recent experiences.-----------------------------------------------------This card is great, excellent graphics very acceptable sound levels, a plus is that it already comes a bit overclocked but from my experience there is room for even more.The performance is awesome and running it with a Corei7 920 OCd to 3.2. On a HD monitor I am able to max out on graphics and the card load does not go to the top (usually peaks around 70%). Beware this will be different with newer games and higher res monitors.OLDER ISSUE ---> Fan speed fixed at 44%, my card runs hotter than it should, the "auto" fan speed does not work and fans remain at 44% until the card gets too hot and the whole system shuts down.--- REVIEWED ---> With the newest Nvidia Drivers fans worked fine and card temps are quite manageable.OLDER ISSUE ---> I thought I might be having issues with the hot air exhausting into the case, that is a minus for me and probably would have chosen a different model that takes the hot air out of the case. Afterwards I improved air circulation, but still if forget to set the fans manually to 100% speed before playing graphic demanding games the card eventually shuts down the PC.--- REVIEWED ---> This card requires a full tower case with plenty of fans, I just did not have enough air movement with my older case. I upgraded to a NZXT Phantom, 4x140 + 2x200 fans, enough to move all the hot air out of the componentes chamber and to keep the GPU temps in check. Running stress tests I've got peak temps of 75° celsius and fans around 60% (remember the newest driver is also lendign a hand here.OLDER ISSUE ---> Then I wrote in ZOTAC's forum regarding the fixed fan speeds, but no one has answered in a week yet.--- REVIEWED ---> I had some answers but at the time I already realized the main problem was my case, so I did not implement the card until it arrived and when installed the old problems disspeared. To be fair, the answers I was given I am sure will get me rid of the problems and made me able to use my older case, but I did not mind anymore.Final thoughts: excellent card, but at the tag price you will be better off buying a GTX 580. I'd go with Zotac easily for that one too, or if you want that much muscle, the 590 is already announced...

Nice OC VGA
By Ramy Said
amazing Card, if you want a gtx 480 i dont see any version to buy except this, i bought this after owning a gtx 480, the performance on stock clocks 700mhz isnt that much of a difference from my gtx 295 but when you oc this beast you find its real powerthis is the best gtx 480 version because it runs very cool and you have lots of OC headroom to increase the performancehave a 3 slot isnt that of a big issue though, i just wish the card is made with a better quality like evga do

The Zotac Amp GTX 480 is one amazing card. First, the temps are insanely cooler compared to the temps on a stock GTX 480. While running Furmark, I reached only 68c degrees using xtreme burn-in mode. The funny part is that the fan speeds were only running at 44%. As a result of the lower fan speeds, the card remained very quiet. I could not perceive the noise difference between idle and load. When I'm just gaming the temps reach 55-60c degrees. In idle mode the card sits at 34 degrees. This is a very cool running card, and by far the quietest card I ever owned. Just make sure you have good air flow in your case, because this card exhausts all the heat into the case. If you are in the market for a GTX 480, I would recommend the Zotac Amp edition. You get a slightly overclocked card and a way better cooling solution.
