That's what she said

Holy. Crap.

Let's just hope it's performance is good enough to compensate for it's size! And i bet aftermarket companies will be able to fit at least 4 80mm fans on it. That will be an IMPRESSIVE sight

HAH! It's like a brick!

 

[mindless728]

Its Huge Buffalo HUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUGE (anyone from western NY will hate me for this)

an a more serious note, i don't care if the card is huge, i have a decent case (as will most people here who buy this card) and will get to show it off "hey, look at the GPU brick in my case"

im so hard right now.

Only 1 8 pin and 1 6 pin power connectors. Mmmmm interesting.

I wonder if it's as big as the ASUS 5870x2

 

[Guest]

Why does it need to be so big. From the reference board it looks like they could consolidate the Power Circuit a lot better while isolating it from the high power heat dissipating devices.

 

[g00fysmiley]

hope the pcb board is reinforced... and i'd probably use somethign to brace it underneath as thats alot of weight on the pci-e slot

Not getting in my case-

 

[rantoc]

Do you install the rest of the computer inside ? =)

 

[awood28211]

I want 2

 

[campb292]

That looks like about US$630.

Matt Skynner looks like he would be really unpleasant.

 

[knowom]

It'll need a special case with front and back bracket mounting too big.

A bit late with the news?? Saw this at least 4 days ago somewhere...

Ontopic: That card looks appealing, I want one (uATX doesn't fit 2)... Loving the sexy design here.

I hate his commercials, and your right...I do hate you for that

Anyways Id love to see the price on it.

 

[toddybody]

WTF, reference card of that size and one fan? Total joke.

 

[kcorp2003]

thats what you get when your with 40nm. better switch to 28nm with globalfoundries by Q3 2011

 

[kikireeki]

Reminds me of 3dfx Voodoo 5 6000.

 

[mikteafool]

LOL Just in time for Crysis 2 to bring it to its knees! How are temps looking?

 

[hunter315]

I think they may need to move to triple slot rather than keep making these things longer. How long is that? I dont think it will fit in anything but an open air case


@mindless yeah i hate you for that too
