all parts:



a gift from amd



sapphire 1600pro box, nice design!
notice that it still says you need 3 parts, a ccf mobo, a master card and a cf ready card, wich is confusing, because for 1600s and 1300s you dont need a master card...



front of the card:



notice the heatsink covering the upper memory chips. how in the h3ll is any air from the fan supposed to get blown through those fins? from an earodynamical standpoint this is ridiculous...



back of the card:



sticky spots with finger prints on the back of the card




all cards compared, those 1600 pros have a cute lil pcb its even 1cm shorter than a 6600gt



x850s in cf
hope the mastercard isnt claustrophobic
i was scared it would choke with the slave card so close to it...



1600s in cf, much more room
