COMPUTEX 2007: Sparkle loses plot and mounts GeForce 8500 GPU on wrong side?
No, actually. Sparkle has turned conventional thinking on its head and designed and manufactured a GeForce 8600 GT with an upside-down arrangement. The GPU is contained on the flipside and the power-delivery components on the usual topside.

This could potentially be a really good idea for those into dual graphics cards, more in the performance (8800) area than in this budget one. Whereas normally the cards would be in close-proximity to each other, effecting cooling and the choice of neighbouring components, having one of these along with a 'normal' card could free up a lot of space and sockets, motherboard layout dependent.
Guess in some Shuttle-like boxes it could help GPU cooling too. |
