It's this one. Looks nice to me, and the one in fudzilla's article is a golden sample, which would cost me 16 euro's extra over the stock one.

So A) Is the gainward dual slot cooler any good? And, would two of these fit on a p5q pro in a Antec p182?

B) Is the golden sample worth an extra 16 euro's, from 143 to 159 euro's ?
 
I think the second card is going to block one of the fan headers. I don't know if you're the type who plugs their case fans into the motherboard, or directly into the PSU.
 
Nope, they go directly into the PSU ... Any comments on the overclocked on vs the stock one ? If I do buy the stock one, chances are I wont be overclocking them.
 
For an extra 16 euros over the stock version, this card is a winner! I mean you have a very good cooler on it and a bad ass factory overclock, what else would you want more!? For more then 30 euros I wouldn't take it over the stock one, but for 16 is so worth it.
 
Hmmm alright, I really like the videocard. THing is, the golden sample needs a 8pin pci-e connector, all I have is 2 6pin pci-e connectors. It does come with adapters, but how does it work? Does it turn your 6pin into an 8pin, or does it require a molex connector ?
 
Yeah, it should transform a 6 pin into and 8 pin. Didn't noticed that it has an 8 pin connector. Could this card really draw more then 150 W of power? I find it hard to believe.
 
Always liked Gainward cards myself.....had the Ti4600GS and 6600GT....wonder how good the cooler is with the VRM's?
