While some games have more powerful requirements than this GPU, the GeForce GTX 480 3-way SLI is only really challenged by the most demanding games released today, but normally it is more than capable of running games with a stable frame rate at 1080p.

Capable of running games with up to a DirectX 11 requirement.

This low performing GPU is unable to play any of the most demanding games available today.

How many years will the GeForce GTX 480 3-way SLI graphics card play newly released games and how long until you should consider upgrading the GeForce GTX 480 3-way SLI in your PC? You should definitely consider replacing this GeForce GTX 480 3-way SLI graphics card, if it is still in your gaming PC.
