nothing a Thermochill 120.3 can't handle! Don't know if I'll be able to get 2 of those and a quad on the same Rad though. I'm guessing they'll be hot.

New pictures of the R680 have been posted on the Asian website PcPop.com. This card is from Unika, and they have customized the cooling. Also, the made the card a lot smaller, so it is comparable to a 8800GTX in length.

That part about this manufacturer making the card shorter is not true though, this is the standard length of the R680.

Didn't know, the card looks a lot shorter as the one in the pics in the first post..
Anyway, the cooler looks a lot like the one used on the Peak HD3870

And i found the original newspost on Pcpop.com and translated it using google translate.

As AMD's new flagship, we see that this is not the HD3870 X2 version of the card, but by the manufacturers Shuangmin pathway offered by Promise high-end graphics, Shuangmin abandon the whole public review board cooling design, but chose to install two separate open-core radiator and thus better cooling effect:

NVIDIA and the 7950 GX2 different HD3870 X2 is not a pair of PCB design, and graphics length is not an exaggeration, and the size of its opponent's top graphics 8800GTX/Ultra is almost the same, so you need not worry about whether installed in the chassis of problems.

Dual fan can easily solve two core of 16 memory and a PCI-E chip heat control, and noise than the high-power version of the single turbofan lower, but shortcomings in the residue is still hot air chassis, the chassis This gamers to a higher cooling ventilation requirements.

Basically, it is fitting the two HD3870, independent power supply modules, needs two 6 Pin PCI-E power supply interface, occupying two PCI slots, as this high-end graphics card is not an exaggeration.

From this perspective, we can see clearly that R680 with a modern 0.8 ns GDDR4 memory, each core opposed to 512 MB 256Bit, the card is 1 GB 512Bit. In addition the center of the card is PCI-E controllers, two RV670 core through its link up to share data and exchange PCI-E 2.0 X16 interface.
