Default I'm confused, which card did I recieve?

Ok guys, I have recently upgraded to 2 GTX 260's. But I check EVGA's website after I register them, and none of them look like the one I bought. I bought the core 192 version (vanilla). When I recieved them, they had the vanilla bottom sticker, but the red side. (Pics below.) The website says I have these, but mine look different. So which card DID I recieve?









Help is appreciated

Go strictly by the P/N on the sticker where it says "896 MB" in the blue square. In fact, you also have to make sure that the P/N on the sticker on your graphics card matches the sticker on the box. The P/N begins with "896-P3".

They match and all, but do I have the red side panel thing, and no backplate or EVGA on the side? That's what is confusing me.

Im pretty sure no back cover indicates 55nm.. if you had a back cover it would be 65nm.
You may have gotten a 216 core (which is better), instead of a 192 core.

Download GPU-z and post a screen shot of it.

Well if the cards work and all the vin's from the box and card match theirs nothing to worry about really. Maybe run gpu-z too tell you more will satisfy your curiosity. Nice rig tho peace

That does not necessarily mean it is a 216 core, it means it is a 55nm card.
Take a XFX GTX 260 BE for example. 216 core, but a 65nm card (has memory on the back)


EDIT: Just say screenshot.
According to that you received the correct card.. just different 'looks'.

Ahh i learned something new. I forgot that core 216 doesn't designate the nm used in the process it just refers to the new core number. I was confused
