Default Asus 9800GTX+ Dark Knight Unboxing
hey all. welcome to the unboxing thread of my sexy new GFX card, the almighty dark knight by asus. please forgive the bad photography, its a terrible camera and i had a cold that day haha.

Here is the Packaging it arrived in. looks good already:



The BEST quality of cardboard component packing i have ever seen:



Here are the actual contents of the box. didnt bother putting the cables in, they are pretty standard:





Views of the card itself:





Here it is going into my cm690, definately shows well how big the card itself is:





And finally, a GPU-Z shot:



Hope you enjoyed

EDIT: idea of temps (5min ATITool artifacts scan)

stock speeds, fan 35%: idle: 34C. Load: 52c. folding 54C

stock speeds, fan 100%: idle: 31C. Load: 49c
