Tom's Hardware? Is that some sort of PC hardware site? I seem to remember a site with a similar sounding name years ago, but I think it lost relevance.

Looks good, as long as it isn't a rip-off. That cooler looks a bit naff, too.
Benchies needed!

2GB.....
Doesn't really make sense.....by the time you need 2gb framebuffer.......the next gen will be upon us.
I'd like to see some benchies vs. a 1gb card. Especially since the 4870 512mb outperforms the 4870 1gb in a few select situations....
2gb would be nice for SSAA....that's about the only thing I can think of to do with this beast.

It looks like it will cool the graphics card unlike the stock coolers nvidia use.

If GTAIV runs on a PS3 or Xbox.....it doesn't need a 2gb frame buffer.....can you say poorley optimized console port....

crysis need more ram with AA involved GTA4 needs more ram, Fallout 3 with texture mods needs ALOT more ram, alot of recently released games need more ram at high resolutions with AA

Consoles have low resolution textures, low screen resolutions and low viewing distance unlike the PC version.
Not interested in their custom twin fan design.
