Question about Zotac 960 AMP!

[AntosRiley]

Hi guys, I am thinking about getting a zotac 960 amp, it is a sexy graphics card, all though due to my OCD I spotted on the video out ports there is what looks to be two bits of orange film.

Is there anyone that owns this card that can confirm this is just what comes when it's shipped and it's removable, or is it actually a permanent part of the card because it's annoying me.


Also, my second question is now that AMD has created new software (radeon crimson edition) do you think Nvidia will do the same? As AMD did a great job with it creating a better metro looking
program.

Looking at pictures of the card I see nothing orange so must be removable.

Look at the picture I recently posted, the orange foil bits to the very left of the card (inner portion of video-out ports on top)

Nvidia's drivers perform very well and won't need an upgrade just for the UI interface. Practically very good.

And he means those 2 orange rectanglish shapes below and upper left side, below the copper pipes height. You will never ever see those when placed into the system.

 

[AntosRiley]

yes from my picture the orange foil can clearly be seen, do any of you own this card?

Most likely not.

You mean this right?

It won't be a hinder when you put the GPU in your PC. You will never see that.

 

[AntosRiley]

yes, do you believe it's removable though? why would they just put some orange foil there.

 

[RobCrezz]

Very hard to tell what it could be for without removing the cooler.

I'm sure It's not without purpose. Personally I don't see how that's an issue mate. I'm quite nitpicky about looks but that is just part of the GPU.

LOL those two little bits are newer gone be seen after mounted in the case. They are not removable they are component protection and will be facing down. You will see more of the back of the card.

 

[AntosRiley]

But have you ever seen that sort of thing in any other graphics card in existence? I don't think so... if it's component protection wouldn't it be removable? I'd really appreciate an answer from an owner of the exact card.

The chance of someone on here having that exact model of card is quite slim, but good luck.
