Nice looking card. What I want to know is how they do a card like this in dual friggin slot, but they can't revise their triple slot DC II coolers :confused: Nice that it has 4GB for each GPU, more future proof I guess. Wonder how much better than the 690 this will be, with 8+8+8 and unlocked voltage control.

Anyway, what do you guys think, $1500 like Mars II? lol not with 8GB total onboard VRAM, and 690's going for $1000 a pop ;)

I have to agree that is one fugly card. Of course with that performance I don't think I'd care if it was pink and neon green.

Well pink and neon green would at least have some "unpretentious" charm. Pumpkin, on the other hand..

I'd love to see a triple monitor review. My luck they will use a single monitor with 1650 x 1080 resolution!

Wow! Finally a card with enough VRAM to MAX out AA even in full Surround mode (8100x1600)! :D

Anyone know when this card is being released?

What? You have to replace the entire system when your graphics is obsolete? Not so great that.

^ What;s that?
ASUS was pretty explicit in stating that the ZEUS is a concept-design. It's not a question of when, but if the motherboard ever makes it to the market. If it does, it will be in very limited quantities, and will cost a fortune.

I'd buy it, dual mobile gpus onboard. Sexy!

Moral of the story: ASUS has plenty of toys to play with. Asus Mars III is the other.
