The VRMs are at the front so it means it is compatible with more aftermarket coolers too.

Ooh nice, should be good for low power consumption mid-range gaming machines.

 

[paradisiac]

why would they use 3dmark 06 as a benchmark

good performance for a card that doesn't need external power connection.
if you want a single slot card thats does need external connection then theres a single slot GTX 570 coming

2 in crossfire will be very good performance and very low power consumption

Would be good for a HTPC as well which needs a bit of gaming grunt.
