If the heatsink wasn't offset on the first one I'd like it.

All this talk about big threats to the other manufacturers, and yet, I've never heard of them. Until they make a presence in markets outside of China, I'm not too concerned.

I had a 9800 GTX+ from them in my old computer.

Never heard of them nor seen there lineup anywhere, so how can they be this big? Hmmmmmm fishy.

Chinese market is bigger than western markets. And they're extremely isolated.

My 580s were Palit. The cooler was what I'd describe as "adequate". They throttled in Summer, but Cooler Master's awful Cosmos case was responsible for that. Modding the case to have side-panel fans and moving to the Air 540 fixed that problem. They offered precisely zero overclocking headroom though. The stock OC (to 783MHz) was right on the border of what the cooler could handle. Their new JetStream cooler looks somewhat more decent, though they've gone the whole Gold route which looks awful.

 

So while not terrible, I'm definitely going to stick with Asus, Gigabyte, MSI, EVGA or Sapphire from now on.

I'm pretty sure they didn't count integrated GPUs, because Intel would probably be on the top then.

I am pretty sure that the title says Graphics Card Vendor

I have not seen an Intel Graphics card as of now,

 

An please, do not mix up GPU with Graphics card

How does this not break the PCI-e slot??

Actually a quick Google search and I found this isn't the first time they went overboard with GPU cooling:

Colorful-680-1.jpg

This is a Passively cooled 680! 32 heat pipes... Why? (PCper) (Chinese source?)

And you need a tower case for them (I'm just saying this because they are enormous). Now imagine 3 or 4 way SLI. You'd end with some shit looking like it came straight from Bioshock Infinite.

 

Am I the only one?
