As you can see, all three graphics cards are identical, made for NVIDIA at third-party factories. This is what you get right after the release. Soon NVIDIA's partners will start making their own copies of the reference design.
You can also see that the PCB is universal. It has a 256-bit bus, but lacks 2 memory chips, totaling the 192-bit bus and 768MB of memory. Add two more memory chips and you'll have the 256-bit bus and 1GB of memory. Thus, 1GB variants should have the same PCB and, probably, the same cooler.
This graphics card has its own audio codec and can transmit both video and audio via HDMI.
Two such cards, organized into a SLI configuration, can output signal to three monitors at once, similar to ATI EyeFinity.
Finally, remember that the product has two 6-pin supplementary power connectors.
Maximum resolutions and frequencies:
- 240 Hz maximum refresh rate
- 2048 x 1536 x 32bit @ 85Hz Max -- analog interface
- 2560 x 1600 @ 60Hz Max -- digital interface (Dual-Link DVI/HDMI)
As for the HDTV support, a review is available here.
 The GPU was made on the 10th week, i.e. in March.
