Fake? Or some other weird card? :p

It's real.

[Vapor]

That would be 8800GT and 8800GTX from the looks of it indeed....the GTX being the one with the WC barbs.

EDIT: no sign of dual-die though....this is very intriguing....and nV seems to be very gutsy.

[koensa]

same size as the 7900GX2(original 7950) right?
wont fit in most cases!

[b0bd0le]

hmmm

any eta on when we can expect this?

[lookmomnobrains]

source of the images....

gone be some power hungry beast

[zakelwe]

It looks the size of a battleship ..lets hope it has some big guns to go with it.

I like the memory placement, not a very sexy card though. Doesn't blow me away to be honest on pure looks

Two 6 pin connectors. Looks like we've finnally got out 200w card.

I thought ati would be first though hehe.

To bad there are no pics of the core, we could finnaly put the 750m transistor rumor to rest.

Also 12 memory chips, looks like 784mb of ram was right.

What is it? Watercooling?

[Vapor]

Yes, the hybrid water/air cooler developed by CoolerMaster (IIRC).

Seems to only be for the GTX.

768mb of ram the back side of the card looks crowed wanna see benches

[Fr3ak]

2 power connectors, 250W+ power consumption?
That thing is huge, but I like the many mounting holes around the GPU, so current watercoolers might fit.
Looks somehow odd. I wonder why its that long.
Interesting cooling concept anyway.
Hopefully there will be a 8300GT as well.

[zakelwe]

Hopefully there will be a 8300GT as well.

So if it has got all that bandwidth does that mean it is a 32 pixel pipeline card plus 10/12/? vertex+geometry shaders ?

2x 6-pin power connectors means up to 225W on PCIe v1 standards. Up to 300W on PCIe v2 standards. Not sure which 'standard' this card follows...but it should be apparent that this puppy draws a lot of power.

And yeah, a current GPU block will fit....but I do wonder what those other holes around the die are for....

Andy...at this point rumored specs only say 2x pixel shaders and 12x vertex shaders. Not sure what the second mem controller is for, but the new AA method (FCAA) might lend us a hint

[Starscream]

hmm im a bit dissapointed by the size ofit.
Also it kindsa sux that if ul get a GTX ul also have ot get watercooling.
or is the watercooling optional?

[thecake90]

Looks fake to me

[HKPolice]

I don't see how the 'watercooling' part works though... it's barely touching the base.

Exactly

[Shift]

Wait what it neeeds two connections to the PSU?

[lookmomnobrains]

Wait what it neeeds two connections to the PSU?

to get lots of power

[afireinside]

Those pictures look so crappy I'm going to say it's fake. If it is real then... How does nvidia expect to push SLI? You will need a dedicated SLI PSU.

[[XC] leviathan18]

pc power and cooling 1kw has 4 6pin connectors

[cronic]

IF its real, that watercooling may be the worst design ever.

[Summers618]

grr L's on watercooling? eh, IT looks huge, even though its just in its early stages, but its prolly a monster (not to R600 tho )

[Planet]

Damn that thing is huge. Ireallly dont like the idea of having 2 psus for these cards in sli.
