Yeah, the EVGA cards look awful, why did they do this lol.

I'm not a big fan although the FTW does look a lot better than the SC. Dual 8pin aswell. Wow. OC madness :D.

Once its in the case you wont see it underneath. Atleast the backplate is nice and not a similar design.

Mines both off on blocks so really couldnt care what they look like for a few weeks until blocks are released :).
 
Yes I just want the PCB, the FTW looks perfect for WC. :eek:

Should be absolute monsters with dual 8pin. Watercooled should really fly aswell :cool: Can't wait :D

I just had custom cables made with a 6+8pin :(. Really was not expecting dual 8pin cards due to the 180w TDP. Lol now got to buy another two 8pin cables. Will run fine on my current dual 8pins until they arrive.
 
I'm thinking the same, just a little worried whether we'll get blocks for it. Hmmm

Got blocks for the 680,780, 970, 780 blocks were compatible with the 980 and 980Ti hense EK didn't need to make any.

They will do the FTW. Just messaged them to see what they say :).
 
Looking at all these picture leaks, it seems quite a few of the custom cards have single 8-pin, same as the FE. This is interesting, and perhaps offers a hint at price. If they don't actually perform THAT much better than the FE, it's quite possible they could come in on the cheaper end (still around £575-625 though). This will be offset by the likes of the EVGA FTW (and similar offerings from other AIB's) with an extra power connector providing superior performance than the FE but at a higher price (£650+). I have a feeling this may be how things unfold, and there will be something for a range of budgets. However, anyone with only £550 or so to spend will more than likely have nothing to choose from other than a rubbish blower design like the psycho blue clown Galax we've seen.

Just wait and see. Why do you keep doing it.
