3D Hardware Goes Naked - 40 Pics Gallery

In matter of pure length - we don't that the actual technology into account this time - there are three manufacturers fighting for the title: Ex-champion 3dfx as well as the current competitors AMD/Ati and Nvidia. On third place we see the Radeon HD 5970 with "only” 30.9 centimeters. The silver medal goes to the Voodoo 5 6000 with exactly 31 centimeters. But the "big board” is definitely the Geforce 7900 GX 2 with 33.5 centimeters. The OEM version of the Radeon HD 2900 XT comes close to this length but it hasn't been officially available to end customers. By the way, the highest consumer card is the limited Asus Mars, a dual Geforce GTX 285/2G. The PCB of this card is even higher than the I/O slots.
