heard from an anonymous source that NVIDIA's GeForce GTX 480 "Fermi" graphics card will have a higher TDP than the GeForce GTX 285, but thanks to a better cooling solution the thermal and noise levels should be roughly the same.
The TDP of the GTX 480 will end up higher than on GTX 285, but with the help of a good cooler the thermals should be very close.
The noise lever should also be very comparable and the card should not end up much noisier than GTX 285. We heard numerous times that GTX 480 will end up with different cooler than the one we saw at CES 2010 and that was showed to Nvidia's loyal press at Editor Days.
