The card itself looks nice but ASUS still using 1.5GB per core is just a damn waste for this card, if they were planning to charge more than 1K for this card, may as well use 3GB per core instead.

like the price of ~1300€ !!!
Would love to have one, but the price and availability will mean only the people on the inside or very deep pockets will get them. I doubt we will see it for sale at Newegg.

1.5GB vram per GPU makes it useless for quad SLI.
probably a decent card. Shame it's been bashed to death with the ugly stick..
and what's with the dodgy as fan wiring / connectors? :o
I want it.

According to the article it only supports two monitors at a time. I get this is a benching card, but ti would be nice to be able to use it for Nvidia Surround when you are not benching.

Impressive cards. Matrix 580 holds much more interest for me. The MARS II seems.. Weak. MARS I was awesome, but this one looks weak to me. Not only does it have less VRAM, it's ugly. I know that doesn't really matter all that much, but when you're paying that much for a card it should at least look sweet.
I like that line.

So according to Tweaktown the GTX580 MARSII does support more than two monitors for Nvidia Surround, anyone know which is correct? Techpower or Tweaktown?
