The 290x cake on the WAN show

rmac52

So i measured the length of an actual pci pins on an old gtx 285 and they were 3.25 inches long. The cake from the WAN show was approximately 3 times the length of the pci connector of the cake. That would make the cake card 9.75 inches long.  A reference 290x is 10.83 inches long.  So its a fairly accurate replica to a 290x

Inches? Are they like nails?

 

No but seriously, I guess "cool story bro" is the appropriate thing to say here?  B)
