Non reference GTX480
Why hasn't a single subvendor released a non-reference GTX480? I've seen non-reference GTX465's and 470's, but not a single alternative cooling solution for the hottest running card in the series.

Re: Non reference GTX480
Evga has a watercooled version for the GTX480! If I went GTX480 I'd go for a watercooled version.Too bad they dont sell in Greece.

Re: Non reference GTX480
Welcome to nVNews, Ghost girl! We've got a great community here, feel free to hang out in any of our variety of subforums.
 I'd like to see some alternate, non-reference 480s as well. Sure, EVGA has the watercooled version, but it would be nice for an AIB to apply some optimizations to the PCB.
