what about the components directly underneath the fan? got to assume the cooling won't be that great there, guess i'll have to wait and see the cooler unmasked
Ok.... What The hell is this thing? look like mini electic leaf blower.... or those homedepot floor dryer blower lol
What you fail to realize though is that this design is a lot more functional than that of the lightning or matrix cards. This card doesn't have any part of the cooler hanging over the sli connectors which means 4-way sli is possible natively. Also, I quite like the design because it doesn't blow all that hot air into your case. And depending on the power delivery and quality of the chips, we could see a real record breaker here.

1. Nobody makes waterblocks for the extreme cards.

Thing is, is that these extreme cards are really meant for breaking records on ln2. So what is the point of putting a waterblock on them when that would increase the cost substantially to us and the overclocker buying them will have to take the water block off anyways?

cards are a waist for everyday users they were just made to bring some world records home for evga. Looks like voltage read points and evebot support making it the ln2 users dream card

I understand this but the thing is the amount of cards used by LN2 overclockers VS the amount bought by public.
Us enthusiasts who buy these products are already a very small part of the market, even smaller is the amount of people that water cool, even smaller is the amount of people who use ln2/dice for overclocking.

No, because the cost to us of a card that has an air cooler vs a card that has a water block is substantial.
