by techPowerUp! (Feb, 2011)Another improvement is that ASUS has overclocked the GPU out of the box to a frequency of 823 MHz.
by techPowerUp! (Feb, 2011)The faster GDDR5 will always have the upper hand with performance, and that's what we're reviewing today.

What People Are Saying Give it to me straight
Price
by techPowerUp! (Feb, 2011)Until NVIDIA reduces the prices of their GT 440 and GT 430 substantially, I don't see it gaining any substantial market share.
by techPowerUp! (Feb, 2011)While an exact pricing is not available yet, our optimistic prediction is around the USD 100 mark, which means that the card is more expensive than AMD's HD 5670, that delivers 11% more performance.
by techPowerUp! (Feb, 2011)Partners can also opt for cheaper GDDR3 memory.
Applications
by techPowerUp! (Feb, 2011)Where we saw 36 W under load on GT 430, GT 440 consumes 55 W. Power consumption in non-gaming states is still incredibly low with 7 W in idle at the desktop and 12 W when playing back Blu-ray content.
by techPowerUp! (Feb, 2011)In idle the card delivers stellar power consumption results with only 7 W. Blu-ray power is also very low with only 12 W. In 3D the card does consume quite a bit more juice than similar cards, but the overall power draw is still low enough to be handled by any PC system.
