    Hmm I wonder what that alternative would be? Two 5870s?
    I certainly would be very happy !

    Re: News - Win the fastest graphics card in the world!!!

    No idea if it'll fit.

    Or if my PSU would handle it.

    But damn nice prize Hexus. Well and truly entered, thanks

    I'll have to remove my upper HDD cage for this beast to fit in my case, but I'd be happy to do so. Thanks for another comp.

    My Lian Li A10B laughs in the face of all you small-cased peasants (I think, not sure really. Not like I'll ever have a card that big).

    nah, i found the answer, just that was a bit confusing, seeing as they link to their review when it's not the same card..

    Re: News - Win the fastest graphics card in the world!!!

    My Coolermaster Stacker can handle that, no problem.

    Not sure about the power supply, though - it's 600W and only has two six pin connectors.

    8 pin and 6 pin.. I'd have to check to see if my PSU's 6 pin connector provides as much as an 8 pin. It's good, but I don't know if it's /that/ good.

    Entered. I suspect my HX550w corsair is not up to the job of powering this thing though.

    And now we're seeing the "My PSU is thiiiiiiiss big."

    I'd have to get a new case, but with an OC 5970 for the price of a new case = no brainer.
