Keplers are huge and very very hot!

[Will Robinson]

Very hot temps and much larger than we had anticipated.
Hmm:sneaky:

Too early to start the bashing.. leave Kepler alone!!!

 

[96Firebird]

Looks expensive too...

 

[lavaheadache]

I'm sure we'll see a cardboard mock up soon being held up high for everyone to see

 

[toyota]

lol at the comments in that link. those guys bicker more than we do.

 

[dajeepster]

watercooling is going to be expensive for that one..

 

[96Firebird]

Will this fit in my case?

 

[skipsneeky2]

Judging from the size of it this card won't be much of a overclocker.

Gonna have to butter this one up with water cooling finally a card that makes the radeon 6990 look like a 6770 in comparison LOL.

 

[tviceman]

I'm going to hold off until it gets rebadged.

 

[chimaxi83]

Obligatory question:

Can it run Crysis?

 

[Olikan]

I'm going to hold off until it gets re-branded :awe:

 

[NIGELG]

It's too early to tell...but I hope Kepler is good.AMD and Nvidia should always be in keen competition.This benefits us all...

 

[Attic]

Gonna need one helluva driver team for this one.

 

[Smartazz]

Those temps are way too high! I doubt my CPU is going to appreciate so much heat near it.

 

[sandorski]

Doesn't look like it will fit in my MidTower.

 

[Rifter]

to be honest i dont care how big or hot it is as long as it performs.

I am sold. The new displacement mapping on surface textures is at least 2 generations ahead of modern videocards. Far more impressive then HD7970's new anisotropic filtering method.

Will there be a good game written to take advantage of it by the time AMD matches it?

Looks expensive too...

its only 3% bigger than the earth! ofc its abit costy.

However since it gets around 800-1400 degree's, that might bring down the price abit.

Doesnt need new code or anything (from what I understand, its just improved IQ with AA)...

if your asking if any good games will be released round the time the 7xxx series is... im not sure.
