ASUS MARS II ROG GTX590
On the average 10% extra performance for $750.00 dollars more
 It is a nice technical achievement but the price is seriously ridiculous. I thought this would come in at $1,000 dollars not $1,500.00 http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814121470 http://www.ncixus.com/products/63706...S%2F3GD5/ASUS/

Re: ASUS MARS II ROG GTX590
Nice unboxing video.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LiaQD...layer_embedded This card is a small building needs stopper so it doesn't break the PCI-E slots. Dimensions 13 " x 6.2 " x 2.5 " Inch 6.2" Tall weights in at 5.5lbs. 2 of these in my Rampage III Extreme would be sexy the light bill not so much.

Re: ASUS MARS II ROG GTX590
4 vanilla gtx 580's in 4 way sli is $1000 cheaper than two of those! like you said rollo, the e-penis crowd for this card! They would attract more people at that price if it only had 3gb per gpu.
