About GTX 400 series
The first products from the GeForce 400 series were launched on March 26, 2010, starting with the GTX 480 and GTX 470. The GTX 480 is the highest-end model from the GTX 400 series and comes with 480 CUDA cores, a 700 MHz core clock speed, 1401 MHz shader clock and 1.5 GB of GDDR5 memory. The GTX 470 comes with a lower 448 CUDA cores, 607 MHz core clock, 1215 MHz shader clock and 1.25 GB of GDDR5 memory. Launch MSRPs were US$499 and US$349 for the GTX 480 and GTX 470 respectively.

As of yet, no product in the GF100 line has been developed with the initial specification of 512 CUDA cores, and the clock speed is lower than originally anticipated.
