Link is <A HREF="http://www.ixbt-labs.com/news.html?103832#103832" target="_new">here</A>, takes 1 slot, but heatsink looks pretty big so you probably can't use the adjacent PCI slot, even if you can, you probably want to leave it for airflow.

SO Purty!

I wonder what the R420 version from ASUS will look like, their FX/XT versions looked very similar. I am very intrigued with what ASUS has to offer as they offer some of the best additonal features. I'd like to see Gainward's NV40 and MSI's NV40/R420. I expect them to have nice cool-utions as well.

Edit: As for the free slot, I'd do that anyway, so it's not a loss, but taking up a slot and then leaving the adjacent slot free as well would mean losing 2 slots. 1 I can handle, but two may be a little risky depending on the mobo you have.

Could be worse could be an XGI! :evil:

Open your 5 inch bay and have it poke out the front of your rig!
