1GB Retail X2900XTX spotted

[Bastieeeh]

There is no day that goes by without news regarding the R600. This time TweakTown (http://www.tweaktown.com/articles/1069/amd_r600_retail_radeon_x2900xtx_better_photos_imme rge/index.html) managed to convince some people at the CeBIT to reveal the card. Don't be scared by the looks of these pictures. The image quality suffered a lot because there were around 50 labels with the label of the owners on it which had to be retouched.

[Acer]

Isnt that supposed to be the X2800XTX?

[LiNKiN]

Booyyyyoing!!!! and Shwwiiinnngggg!!!! :laugh: Hubba, Hubba, DROOL! :laugh:

[vipercrazy]

thats some serious size...

[Greek]

i hope i have enough money to buy that card when it comes out :P

[ktr]

thats some serious size...

haha.

ATI said that they are going for a smaller, less power hungry card to defeat the 88, but they did quite the opposite. :nutkick:

:cry:

btw, is the r600 gonna use that thermal foil?

[WarEagleAU]

It may use the thermal foil or it may come out with the x2900xtx. Beautiful card, seriously. I have to agree with Linkin on that front. I wish it was smaller and less power hungry, but my system can take it and so can my utility bill :)

[ktr]

If they do use thermal foil, i hope that heatstink is silent and efficient. from what i here thermal foil = fused heatsink to processor.

[Eric_Cartman]

that thing is a monster

[savillm]

OMFG i want one!

[Teh Gimp]

This is the 9.5" card... My only concerns are that the flames look kind of dumb.

the decals give you a 500pt increase in 3dmarks. :laugh:

[zekrahminator]

Yeah, the photoshopping is pretty obvious, I just hope that it was just a bit of cleaning work they did on that picture...faking a cooler onto a card is pretty hard work anyways :p.

damm it blows hot air in case

[anticlutch]

damm it blows hot air in case

What? The fan sucks air from inside the case then exhausts it out the back like the x1950xtx's cooler does from what I can tell..

[jocksteeluk]

does anyone know if these cards come with external power supplies?

[Protius]

i want one!!!, kinda gettin sick of pics, i want benchies soon!

[anticlutch]

i want one!!!, kinda gettin sick of pics, i want benchies soon!

I'm getting sick of waiting ;)

[Alcpone]

does anyone know if these cards come with external power supplies?

You mean a gfx dedicated psu or power connections? I would imagine no and yes ;)

[Xtant25]

You mean a gfx dedicated psu or power connections? I would imagine no and yes ;)

If you look at pic 1 and 3 you can see it has two power connections a 6 pin and an 8 pin.

[KennyT772]

Im now waiting to see a dell with a r600 powered by a 450w psu. I give it 2 months until it happens.

[Ketxxx]

Talk about "my-penis-is-bigger-than-yours" ..

[demonbrawn]

Hahah no kiddin. I hate those little red ATI fans...

[hv43082]

Talk about "my-penis-is-bigger-than-yours" ..

It'll be twice as long when I get two of them, hahaha.

[tkpenalty]

That card is "hot" lol (no pun intended). Seriously the card designs are getting radical these days! It looks huge because of the bluuring, the PCI-E port is blurred up so much... lol so yeah its not that big anyway.

EDIT: The blurring actually makes it look cool

[Casheti]

That looks awesome. I want one.

Then again....X850XT will rule the world forever.

[savillm]

lol true i love my x850xt
