EVGA gtx780TI KingPin

FloRolf

I am not a fan of that cooler whatsoever, it looks like some really bad idea of "future tech" from an 80s movie

With today's technology I often wonder why we don't have colonies on the moon or Mars. Then I go to Wal Mart for 5 minutes and realize the vast majority of the human populace isn't ready for such things.

I think the clear plastic makes it look cheap

Look at this way- Bigger fans, better heatsink and more static pressure optimized fans than the regular ACX cooler. This + the fact that a huge majority won't see the card cooler once installed (even assuming you run this thing on air) means they went with function over form which I am ok with.

 

If people want to see actual pictures, a member on OCN has already got his cards: http://www.overclock.net/t/1411500/official-evga-classified-owners-club/7950_50#post_21643639

The first benchmark I saw is beginning to prove me right, the link below leads to a large image so be warned :D

The guy got a boost of 1307 MHz core at 1.16 V on a quick Heaven test. I can't wait to try these on water with 3rd party Bios.

Confirmed by EVGA rep. dark magic was used to create these cards.
Just for fun and LOLS :)

Going to be interesting to see what you can push these cads to.
Records will tumble. No doubt the 2ghz barrier will be broken, repeatedly and on purpose.

Wait, 3GB VRAM? I thought it was 6.

if you have to insist you think for yourself, i'm not going to believe you.

The clearish shroud on the gpu looks pretty nice but wonder what will happen to the color if it is being affected by heat and light.

To all those saying the card is ugly; If you buy this card and keep the stock cooler on, you have wasted your money. If you're going to air cool, just buy a reference or a regular Classified. I'm glad they didn't put some extravagant, expensive cooler on it since I'm just going to take it off and throw on a waterblock.
