Hmm, looks like a new custom cooler? I wonder if this is quieter and/or cooler running than the stock jobby...

[edit] Just noticed the clocks are different vs. the "old" black edition as well - core is higher (680 vs. 666), shader is the same (1440) but RAM is a lot slower (2000 vs. 2300). Interesting changes... I wonder if this works out slower?

Cheers,

Fastest core (by 5Mhz) but the shader is slightly slower and mem speeds are far slower than the EVGA SSC.

Saying that tho, it is also about £45 cheaper!
 
Should post this in the Graphics Card section, you might get a lot more interest there lol. :)

Also on the XFX website it states this graphics card comes with Farcry 2 not Assasin's Creed, the older version of the card did come with Assasin's Creed.

Typo error in Yellow. :)
 
I have the original 260 Black Edition (666/1403/1150) and would like to keep it for a while after my i7 upgrade.
Does anyone know whether this version can still be obtained? I was thinking SLI might be nice.

Cheers, John:)
