Especially when overclocking it shows more muscle compared to the reference design cooler. Here, the front side. As stated two dual-link DVI connectors and a mini-HDMI connector for all your monitor and Full HD loving features.

The PCB is very clean and crisp alright. Here we see the backside, notice that you'll get only one SLI finger, meaning a maximum of two cards set up in SLI is as far as you can go with a multi-GPU setup.

Two 6-pin PEG power connectors are required for this board. Power consumption is rated at a 160W TDP. I would have rather seen the two connectors at the backside of the card, it is not a lengthy card and aesthetically that would be the more pleasing path to follow.

This card (LTD OC edition) will come with a price tag of roughly 250 USD/EUR. Expect the regular EX OC edition to cost 225 USD/EUR and as our tests will show, that is an awful lot of value for money. Especially when you overclock a little, these puppies can be boosted close to Radeon 5850 / GeForce GTX 470 performance.

The cooler differs from the KFA2 design on the GTX 470 that we tested a while ago, though in essence the features remain the same.

The cards have a detachable fan as you can see. This way you can clean out the dust from that cooler every now and then. Both cards have this feature.
