5870-power connector question

[clok1966]

I want to get a 5870 but the Power connection comming out he side instead of back is a problem for me. My water cooling sits whre the connectors go in. Are there any 5870 with power on the back, like most of the cards used to do?

I'm kinda confused by your statement as to back of card. When I look at the images of cards at newegg I saw 2 options. Power plugs on the end of the card and top loaded power plugs.

Look at the images of this one and see if it's what you are looking for.

secong post to day where i may have been confusing.

the power connectors go in the card on the far end and (would point to the front of case)

All the 5870 have the power connectors going in the side of the card and the connctors point to a side of case.

Im my setup the My water res is a 2X4X10 upright that sits right beside my card in the case, exactly where all the 5970 cards power connectos go in.

I was hoping there would be a card with the connectos like the older cards (as in the link above)

you mention two two types of connctors, you showed me one type, do you have alink to another 5870 card with the other type?

I think I'm reading it correctly, you want the power connectors to be opposite of the PCIE connection on the card, right? Face away from the motherboard?
