If they really want to exceed the size/power constraints, why not have a fiber-optic high-bandwidth cable, plug into a small PCI-E slot, and run that cable externally to a big box that sits on top of your PC, that has the GPU and a nice power-supply in it. Plug it into the AC too.

The fan is under his fingers in the middle of the card. Similar to the 5970 Black Ed.
Needs more wood.

In some other thread:
Infraction.
Nice double standards Idontcare. But I suppose youdontcare.
That was my thought too. Too bad if it's true because it will be dumping the heat from one of the gpus back into the case.
This time, AMD is toying with a revolutionary new cooler design that makes use of a cylindrical blower (like ones used in air-curtains, on a much smaller scale) to draw air from the rear portion of the cooler, and circulate through the complex vapor-chamber enhanced heatsink inside. In other words, the card lacks a fan intake hole where it's typically located, but the rear portion serves that purpose.
That wouldnt fit in my case......or maybe even through my front door.
^-^
thats why you cant spot the fan where it normally is located.... because their useing a cylindrial blower.
Calling out a mod?
It's funny how you don't say this in the original thread, but instead, hide it in an unrelated thread.
Are you a politician? This is how our pork-barrel budgets get passed.
In this thread there are similar "infractions", Einstein. I've been 15 years on forums without any reprimand.

Yes,but they didn't want Thermi to get lonelyshouldn't new video card products be leaner, cooler and more efficient as opposed to becoming big, bad, beasts?

Damn, you could kill a deer with that thing!
