If you want to see some weird looking GPUs google "gainward 5950" (or any random 5000 series lol).

Think the Gigabyte 780GHz edition is one of my favourite looking.

I Googled Gainward GPU and there's a lot that look like car radiators

I agree with a number of people here, not a fan of the looks of the HOF.
I'm also not a fan of the looks of the MSI card either. Although some of that may be rooted in my general dislike of MSI.

I think for looks I'd currently go with the Asus Strix, if we're not counting waterblocked cards. Although as Kaap posted, I think the reference card looks nice.

There are a few 5000 series with really weird double and triple fan, etc. setups and then you have the Albatron Gigi GeForce FX 5950.

Thats not gold. Its just the natural process of the PCB on the edge.

One of my favs.

Agree! Such a great looking GPU

I think these old Tesla cards are pretty cool

I don't know what the best looking card is but i think my own i a pretty good looking card, its not just the good looks, its the obvious quality of the materials... its also the feel of the thing, its heavy, it feels very well made, the materials look and feel to quality.

You don't see many of these about.

The whole thing also lights up like Blackpool, the shield on the Backplate, the Dragon on the top, on the front around the fans, all RGB, which is a bit vile but you can turn all that off...

Its an MSI GTX 1070 Quick Silver.

Sexy looking card. Msi need to start doing more colours again!

moogle · 21 May 2017 at 10:24

No, it's ugly. I'd only buy one (an ugly card) over a better looking card if it was significantly cheaper or offered way better temps.

spikerules · 21 May 2017 at 13:56

This a joke. It's horrible looking.

Mr-White · 21 May 2017 at 14:02

I kinda like the design but with most things, white is a pretty boring colour.

Darujhistan · 21 May 2017 at 14:22

No, it's absolutely horrible aesthetically.

TNA · 21 May 2017 at 19:00

Best looking? Nope. But you are hardly going to get everyone agreeing on what such a thing.

Brazo · 21 May 2017 at 21:44

If your fifteen I suspect it looks awesome(!)

Greebo · 21 May 2017 at 21:53

Personally I think it's one of the worst looking ones you can buy. Shrugs I suppose it's like marmite

McManicMan · 22 May 2017 at 11:19

its cool and i have a white system, but not at that price cool, i'm skipping 1080 gen as my HOF 8 pack edition white 980ti is more than enough on every game
