because it has such a beefy cooling system and compare the weight to a couple other top-of the range cards on the market so why don't we start with the gtx480 I'm going to put it on my little scale here and I'll hold this up for you to see so this is a 2 lb graphics card that is all 2B all right so then why don't I compare it to the 5870 because I know at NC we've been having a little bit of trouble shipping systems with with these Radeon 5000 series graphics cards so this is also a 2-b graphics card so it's quite possible that our assembly department will need to ship your system if you have a GTX 480 in it they'll might need to ship it separately and then have you install it yourself so I'll make a point of doing an installation video for the gtx480 in the uh next little while but just to get that point of reference why don't we take the biggest bad boy of a uh of a graphics card out there this is the GT GTX HD 5970 and let's throw that on the scale for comparison so this is a

out my quick video on the weight of the GTX 48"}
