OOPs, my above statement was in reference to the OCZ video cards, not muskin. Thanks for the accidental reminder.

I like the look, some of the crazy pictures on other cards are kinda tacky.

Expect these cards to have epic memory folks, if they're non-reference.

not really, unless that was sarcasm.

This is how it happens, somebody makes the pcb and takes the GPU from Nvidia and GDDR3 memory from Hynix or Samsung and puts it all together and sends it to the Mushkin Sticker and Packaging factory.

So only thing mushkin is the sticker and the customer support after the sale.

No fanfare from me.

Just stock cards with a sticker (And judging from their 8800GT, a higher than normal price tag for no reason)

that's what happens with most of the manufacturers. EVGA is one of the example. I think Foxconn or Flextronics makes the boards for them.

Galaxy used to do this for most of the manufacturers recently, so does Palit. Galaxy is owned by Palit.
