box art is cool and all but how about a price? If they have the art they should also be close to announcing a price right? I mean we have to know how much money to bring to boston dont we?

Wow! What font is that?

 

[sixbone]

who cares about the box, I want what's inside!

 

[ColliSions]

A box.. WOW!!

 

[techseven]

This is nicer than Palit's box art, but still pretty conservative - as is often the case with EVGA, but you might expect a facelift when a new generation GPU arrives...

 

[shadow_raven]

It looks like this was done in 5 minutes, and EVGA is way too big IMO

 

[alvine]

to much hype going on

Who cares about the box, it gets recycled any how & won't do anything for your computer! Drop the price by $25 to 100 & axe the marketing team.

That made me chuckle pretty good.

Boxes look fine and dandy. Looking forward to seeing some thorough reviews and direct comparisons on benchmarks.

Evga video card is okay. The box looks like it was done by a 8 year old. Maybe those kids from the E-trade commercial can work for evga.

still kinda weird neither boxes have DX11 on them as a selling point.

Huge! Like the price tag is gonna be.

DX11 is not a breakthrough technology. In fact only few games even getting the full benefit of it.
I don't see why people so concern about DX11 when most of the game they play now aren't even getting the full effect.

It would be colored Rainbow in that case. ;p

speaking of evga, i wonder how long it will take for them to jump ship and make radeon based cards after this pickle nvidia has put them in.

They have DX11 I'm pretty sure...NV would be dropping the ball beyond belief if it didn't. They must be embarrassed, and trying to downplay the whole "7 months late to the table" thing.

 

[jnjkele]

Yes, but can the box play Crysis?

 

[AMW1011]

Once again the box art is pushing 3d vision, PhysX, CUDA, and SLI but nothing about performance... Not a good sign, but we shall see soon enough.

+1 To benching the boxarts. What should we test though? Rigidity, flammability, gloss factor, geek factor displayability, texture and weight all come to mind... Any more? Maybe even a boxart hierarchy? Boxart rebranding!!

 

[war2k9]

Can't wait to see how well it will perform.

How hot does it get?
