End of Renaming: GTX 480M is a Full-blooded Fermi
 
It looks like nVidia understood the level of consumer confusion the company made when they introduced GTX 285M with G92 GPU [9800GTX]. Under the name GeForce GTX 480M, the company unveiled a three-billion transistor notebook GPU.

Few weeks ago on CeBIT 2010, we were shown a custom notebook design featuring a three billion transistor Fermi Chip. Given the initial reviews citing what kind of a power hog Fermi is, we knew that nVidia had a difficult task at hand.

We expected a heavily clock-down, core-cut down part and that is exactly what we got - however, the specifications of the GPU in question were still worthy of carrying the name GTX 480M [those who follow GPUs will immediately recognize upcoming GeForce GTX 465]:
