probably because H&S wasn't around a pair of years ago - it's always been this terrible as far as i recall
Why first pic have ATi sticker on fan?

Are you joking? AMD has a much better budget range than Nvidia.
While buying my new budget computer I couldn't find a good Nvidia card anywhere.

Well it is, they're not doing anything terribly exciting, they're just making "5000+" here.

You can't copyright a post if I write my own post myself.
And you haven't patented it.
And besides, my shop owns yours.
:D
I don't think there's enough watermarks on the pictures... :rolleyes:
You can almost make out what looks like a graphics card under ChipHell's logos...

if you mean like $60 then ok
But... I just bought an HD 5850!
People seem to forget that an Nvidia 460 is a great price/performance card.
The 6000 series is starting off at the 6700 series, most likely the series will be a 5-10% performance increase over the 5000 series; just that the price of the 6000 series will be 50-100$ more than the 5000 series.
AMD and it's selling point, "With the release of Nvidia's dx11 cards coming out within the few months, we've decided to crank down on the 6000 series a bit and release it as soon as possible. What do we have? Why, DX11.1 of course!"
Mind you, there's still only 3-4 dx11 games that actually show off dx11 in all it's glory.

Or Radeon, since the cards are still going to be released as Radeon 6/7/8/9 series, right?
God damn'it how much bigger do they need to get?

The only limit is beyond the wall.
The length of the cards today is just laziness in the PCB engineers. I have made PCBs fora living before, and it's the engineers job for parts placement. There's no reason a high-end graphics card should take up more than 7 inches of length in a case, other than the engineer's laziness. To be quite honest, they probably don't even give a flying fuck. :buddy:
Your Epeen gets longer with your graphics card, that's why end game cards are long.

They probably have more than compactness to worry about.

you shouldn't believe anything pixelheart says, for a while, he tried to convince everybody he was a girl
Well if these are a bit bigger then my current setup then new case here I come!

dun squash image liek bug plz

im funny
I don't see how the dumbass long image joke came about because the cards aren't that long compared to nVidia.
It came about because of the 5970.

That carbon fiber decal on Asus graphics cards looks pretty damn good.

I like MSi cyclone setups better.
It's like lingerie for graphics cards.

I love the simplicity there. Though I think it ought to have a second fan.

Gotta love the clean design of the ASUS 5xxx cards.
wood screws
A second fan would indeed benefit that ASUS card.
yeah really, the fan that's there isn't even over the GPU
I think the idea with the design is airflow and not mindlessly blowing on the GPU. Which means the intake shouldn't be bigger than the outlet.
