Posting in thread...cards looks like beasts and I've been deciding for a while now whether to go SLI 560's or crossfire 6950's...this may seal the deal!
It looks good. It should definitely run cooler the the ref design. I hope this delivers as advertised. I have to MSI 4870s that won't overclock a damn and have had nothing but bad luck with their motherboards.
I just bought a GTX460 Cyclone for my OLD Asrock 775Dual-VSTA, works like a champ. I am awaiting the new B3 67 boards to become available so my lonely i5-2500K processor has somewhere to go, so I would love to upgrade to the 560Ti.
Now being half-Taiwanese, born there, back to the States, back to Taiwan, and then back to the US, I really wish all the Taiwanese companies would have a native language speaker do their translations. "Dual fans provide twice the airflow to cool GPU/Memory/Power Module at once" doesn't need the "at once" It is redundant and since "at twice" doesn't make sense it should just be dropped. "Large-sized copper base provide faster dissapation of heat coming from the GPU" should use "provides" Better marketing speak would be "Faster GPU heat dissapation from large-sized copper base" and if it a thick copper base, impress people with the thickness, like, "Faster GPU heat dissapation from large-sized 1/4" copper base!"
My father ran a factory, EMMT, in Taiwan for many years in Taichung. They made core memory modules for military aircraft navigation. Mil-Spec was the terminology, not Military Class. Although with fruity American lawyers, putting Mil-Spec on the box may open you up to a lawsuit if they aren't actual Mil-Spec components. I like "Military Grade" vs "Military Class" personally.
If you come out with a Cyclone edition, it would be nice to know which one is cooler. I havne't been able to figure that out from the 460 information that is available.
Sweet looking card and it's nice to have two fans cause two is always better than one..... unless you're talking about the number of guys in a threesome.
