GTX 580 Classified would take a close second for me:

Final and third pick goes to the 3850 / 3870 series Single Slot GPUs from Sapphire.  In a time when the AMD GPU market was beginning to be dominated with dual-slot GPUs, Sapphires 3850/3870 cards were some of the last high-perfomance single slot desktop cards ever made.  They also featured a non-standard blue cooler and PCB as apposed to the stock red components form AMD/Ati:

"Here is some advice that might have gotten lost somewhere along the way in your life. 

 

#1. Treat others as you would like to be treated.

#2. It's best to keep your mouth shut; and appear to be stupid, rather than open it and remove all doubt.

#3. There is nothing "wrong" with being wrong. Learning from a mistake can be more valuable than not making one in the first place.

Way back when, before a lot of you were born or shitting your diapers, AMD/ATI ruled over Nivida due to their epic failure of the 5800/5950 ultra and the 9700 and 9800 Pro series ruled the land and the Hercules 9800 Pro AGP was one of the best and good looking cards ever built, especially for Half Life 2's launch

I had the reference version and you see that heatsink. It literally melted off on my 9800 Pro. I sent in for RMA and sold it brand new to get the 7800 GS after I got a solid few years of the 9800 Pro in. I think I then traded that up to the 6600 GT. Then after that the 7800 GS.

I prefer the black version, but that's my taste.

the most beautiful gpu is the one that sits in your machine and does great work at displaying what you're actually looking at, instead of just being fancy inside a black box.

 

as for physically beautiful, its a matter of taste, and the right gpu in the right spot. you can have an amazingly sleek gpu, it'll look like shit in a steampunk build.
