Awesome, looking forward to the benchmarks

Nice

Like you say, look forward to the results.

I think for the money I'd like something not so retardly coloured. Still only 2 5870s on one PCB. I never really understood the Asus "Ares and Mars" cards.

buttkinz · 30 Jun 2010 at 23:25

lol, i certainly wouldnt buy one although i do want one, the only place a high performance card belongs is under water

i highly doubt it would be able to clock as well as a standard card with a block fitted anyway, but thats not the point

i guess its more like an engineering feat to get publicity, build the fastest version of the fastest card and everyone hears about it.

its still an awesome useless piece of kit tho! I think we need more crazy ideas like this

Trifire 5850 dominates it for £660

arc@css · 1 Jul 2010 at 00:04

Probably does edge it slightly.

lol slick packaging, worth a grand??? i dont thinksoes!

OMFG those doors! I used a picture of some doors as reference and to texture a 3d model and now I see them absoloutly everwhere, they are even on the TV right now. I didn't know there was such thing as default doors but that is what those are.

Oh yeah, nice card.

They've already admitted it wont be the fastest single card solution out there also

buttkinz · 1 Jul 2010 at 08:05

Oh dear rofl, that's a fail then considering all the hoo haa over it

RavenXXX2 · 1 Jul 2010 at 08:22

Am I right in thinking that games will utilize a max of 2GB with this card.

arc@css · 1 Jul 2010 at 08:50

Yep, think that's right.

-VK- · 1 Jul 2010 at 09:05

Nice video - Just wait for the performance results.

arc@css · 1 Jul 2010 at 09:07

I don't think it's a bad looking card myself. Quite nice.

nalla · 1 Jul 2010 at 10:03

looks good, should give some good fps, worth a grand i dont think so, that money could buy 3 x5870's and have some change.

icehot · 1 Jul 2010 at 10:47

These are gunna be expensive arnt they

NVM just heard 1000 quid lol, awesome

tankskun · 1 Jul 2010 at 10:54

I like the briefcase Awesomeness!

Vantage score of X14416 seems very poor (for reference my 2 480's score X22368). Anyway, two 480's will be cheaper and faster (in yo' face VFM people

)
