beautiful card.

If it performs on par with Gigabyte's and Asus' 5970 (or 5870x2 if you prefer) then it seems like the a really sweet design. eyefinity 6 and it's only a 2 slot design so it's easy to crossfire.

Of course, it's butt rape pricing and the 6*** series is just around the corner. If you have enough money as not to worry about such things though, it seems like gorilla of a card.

Crzy hardware.

I think the Sapphire Toxic version is probably the best of the 4GB 5970s.

this card would probably run games well into the future just how a 9800gx2, 4870x2, and gtx295 can.

I never understood why companies who make these kind of cards still put air coolers on them. If they're spending over $1000 on a video card, they obviously have enough money to water cool. In fact, because this card has custom PCB that i could never find a water block for, I would never buy it. Even if it was free, I'd sell it and buy a ref 5970 w/ waterblock and OC the shit out of it.

So you can't put the pieces together and realize who this card is made for? Hell, the gun-shaped case should more than give that away.

This card is for chumps with more money than sense.

I just ordered one to use as a carry-on for my business trips.

The entertainment value in that alone is worth the price of admission.
