NVIDIA GeForce GTX 580
by Rob Williams on November 10, 2010 in Graphics & Displays
NVIDIA launched its first Fermi-based GPU earlier this year in the form of the GeForce GTX 480, and it was met with mixed reception. Until now, it’s been the fastest single-GPU offering on the market, but certain downsides kept it from being the first-choice of many. Does NVIDIA’s first proper follow-up fix all that was wrong?

Dead Rising 2
For those looking for the ultimate fill of zombie killing, look no further than Dead Rising 2! The game looks great, has a lot of “realistic” zombie’s, and is a lot of fun to play. To test, we take a quick run through the mall accessible not long after beginning the game which lasts about 2 minutes and follows the same path each time.
NVIDIA’s GTX 580 is looking quite good here, coming out far ahead in Dead Rising 2 ahead of the HD 5970 – a card I had expected to be the faster of the two.
F1 2010
From the creators of Dirt 2 comes one of the classiest racers around, F1 2010. This game features unbelievable graphics, super-fast speed and intense realism. It’s hard to go wrong. For our test, we chose to race one lap around the Monte Carlo track, lasting about two minutes.
Being that Dirt 2 favors Radeon cards, and F1 2010 is built on the same engine, these results are no surprise. Overall, both cards deliver wicked performance.
