    We try to make them hard, no really...

    ...I'll spare some time and say that this is a high-end card based on a NVIDIA GPU... which is quite obvious from the pic, to be fair. But what about the details? Who put it together, and what's its spec?

    PHP Code:
    $s = new signature();
    $s->sarcasm()->intellect()->font('Courier New')->display();

    Impossible to guess the manufacturer, as its a generic reference design, all the manufacturers do is put a sticker on the fan.

    I'm guessing a Winalot XXX edition with extra bourbons? Maybe even a bit of gravy if we're really lucky?

    7970GTX seems more appropriate..

    The Super Quad-SLI version with 4GB of memory in 4xSLI... total waste of time and money.. probably see no improvements at all.. unless you run it on a 30'' apple cinema

    It's clear that the product shown is the new Riva 256!

    It's a card with a price tag to make me glad that I'm content with a Leadtek 7600GT?
