The size of the GTX is ridiculous. Who needs a P180-style case partition when you've got one of those?!

Twin PCI-E connectors for the win! :roll: This is getting ridiculous...

should this be in "cool and quiet VGA"? I know it's a video card...but it will in no way operate "cool", and doing so will hardly be "quiet", without an expensive water cooling system, or yet to be announced air coolers that are capable. In fact, until there's mention of a mainstream DX10 card, topics on these cards don't really fit in this section. eh, it's trivial...in any event..wo-mamma, that GTX is one endowed video card. I do believe I'd have to move my optical drives just to fit it.

Well, I guess Antec was right to put two PSUs in P190... :roll:


btw, first page is a funny read... :lol:

Just imagine SLI....Quad PCI-E connectors, 200WX2 + Quad Core CPU at 120-150w and .... Seasonic M12-650 actually crying for help.

I have to think these GPU's are going to crash and burn soon, sailing the same deadend as the P4.

I would like to see a tower cooler that rests on the bottom of the case, so the card doesn't have to support any weight. Hmm, if the slot is the right height, a Ninja might work out nicely. :D

One review said they weren't 'noisy'.. will have to reserve judgement until more qualitative tests are run though :)

Looks far too big - and far too much power used for me!
