nVidia G80 - Pictures!

I can't wait for video cards to go the way of CPUs and they actually work at reducing the power draw while increasing performance.
 
Yeesh...I'm hoping thats the high end model, and that the middle end doesn't need that.

If they all need water cooling, they'd better come with the resovoir and everything.
 
Maybe

Nvidia will either A) Cater to thier fans and provide the neccessary items for water cooling or B) Act like a business who only wants $$$ and gouge them for the extra $$$ for the parts. I'm hoping the former as ATI is releasing some good products. :)

Nah, that won't come as standard. You might be able to buy a Watercooled version and an Air version though...

But yeah, two PCIe power connectors is pretty ridiculous to be honest. So much power...
 
If that IS the new G80, im going to give it a miss. TWO pci-e power cables needed? And it needs more cooling than the 7800GT(X) that had TWO cores on the card.
 
I think you guys have it wrong. nVidia wouldn't make a card which required watercooling to run! How many people on here have watercooling? 2 in 10?

I have a feeling they'll make two different versions, one with a standard cooling fan, and one for the people who use Water Cooling...
 
They wont make a watercooling only model, unless it is the high end then there's a possibility but some partner will put a fan on it at some point.
