They just released a the first live video of the card today, it's GORGEOUS! 

 

 

Galax, formerly Galaxy just announced their Hall of Fame Edition 900 series cards today and they look absolutely stunning! 

 

If anyone is curious as to why they changed their name they have a page here - http://galax.net/US/story.html

 

Press Release: http://galax.net/US/hof_press_launch.html

 

I cannot wait to get my hands on two of the beasts! I recently built an all white themed X99 system not to long ago and I've been patiently waiting for the white HOF series cards to come out. http://i.imgur.com/ECzzf7E.jpg Will be sure to post in Build Logs when I get the cards. :D

My body is ready for overclocking.

Might pick me one up!

Edit:

Lol, did the HOF always have crowns branded on them? Or was this just because of 700-series and what happened with K|NGP|N :D?

They werent making as much money with their EU division KFA2, so they merged together and called themselves GALAX.

Good luck finding a mb ram and and all the stuff to go along with that color scheme

Beware of him that is slow to anger; for when it is long coming, it is the stronger when it comes, and the longer kept. Abused patience turns to fury.

Don't we all wish they made that sabranco motherboard? I think the build logs thread would be full of white builds, all in white define R4s and with white enermax coolers.

Now I really want to have that motherboard to do my own completely white PC build.

Finally proper OC orientated cards. 

 

That actually look good. 

Our Grace. The Feathered One. He shows us the way. His bob is majestic and shows us the path. Follow unto his guidance and His example. He knows the one true path. Our Saviour. Our Grace. Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example. The True Path of the Feathered One. ~ Dimboble-dubabob III

Start of the GTX 900 series is when Galaxy merged with KFA2, even though they where pretty much to same company.
