I hope the cooler is as good as it looks...

Hmmm should be a nice boost - but would anybody bother upgrading from a x1900xt/x? Doesn't look like it would be that much faster, except maybe in CF at v.high res with the higher mem bandwidth

I like it!

Finally, an artic cooler-like stock design (I know, HIS does it already).

It's nice, but I'm going to stick with my X1900XTX for awhile.

Yes there is a topic on this, several in fact. With the same link...

Oooh, looks nice.

Hopefully for ATI (AMD???), G80 doesn't come out anytime soon.

Granted nVidia is on track with G80 to debut a few weeks later in September, there's not much to be excited about with the x1950 series, except perhaps a closer gap between ATI's highend and the Geforce 7950GX2 (but I think we can all presume that G80 would surpass both of these GPUs by miles in almost every aspect).

Any reviews?

hkepc.com has a different picture, with the card sporting an even sexier cooler - http://www.hkepc.com/bbs/itnews.php?tid=637970

If you are already a high end ATI or nvidia owner then I don't see that you will gain much by upgrading.

However it does look quite good. Still prefer the cooler on the 7900gtx though.
