NVIDIA G80 reference design done by Asus

USUALLY MSI does reference designs for Nvidia cards. But we are surprised to learn that Asus came a long way and has created the reference system for Nvidia this time round.

Again one, maybe even more important, thing is forgotten.
The layout of the PCB is done by Asus,
but the reference cooler is made by Coolermaster (as usual).
