gohhhh...

Looks sexeh...

I want it.

Oh, and holy freaking molex connectors. I thought with the 2 PCI-E connectors you'd only need to plug in 1 molex each. I guess not.

EDIT: BTW guys, lots more pics at that link.

You do. 2 PCI-E connectors will suffice; it looks like they were using Y adapters for some odd reason, which will also work.

I'm using one of those Y adapters on my card right now with 2 seperate molex cables (2 totaly seperate lines from the PSU) running to them. As far as I know, this can help the card take advantage of dual 12v rails... though I dont know if thats just a rumor or not.

This card sorta scared me though becaue I planned on doing the same thing, but I just dont have 4 molex connectors to spare.
