I was admiring the heat sink I removed from my HD 6950 when I thought about making this thread. As it turns out I am a sucker for the industrial design they used for this heatsink:

I also am in love with the Gainward Phantom cards:

I'd have to say the DirectCU II cards from ASUS.
Talk aboot nice looking stuff eh?

EDIT: Though OP's Gainward Phantom is really cool!
 
The Gainward Phantom looks really nice, I'd like to buy one just because of the looks 😀

I also loved the way the 7900GTX looked years ago. It seemed the look alone made it faster.

I've always kind of had a thing for the cards that didn't really make it because they were too over the top.

ATi HD 2900 XTX 512 ES & 7900 GX2:

What a beast. Too bad it killed 3dfx.

My current card would be pretty sexy without the COD :MW2 junk all over it.

I got this card BFG OC sitting here on my desk staring back at me as I type this. It is a nice looking card.

But if Iwere to pick now, and "not" only because I own them. But Id say the XFX 6870 or 6970. Even the Black Edition. I'm a sucker for the "boxed simple" look.

I like them simple looking.
 
I like the clean, professional look of the Quadro 6000. 😎

That is a good looking card. As has already been mentioned, it would look better with a black PCB.

That was actually on of the nice things about the GTX 480, the George Foreman grill kept the AIBs from tarting it up too much with their stickers.

It's amazing to me how small that card looks now. I remember thinking it was huge back in the day.
