Nvidia should bundle free cases with giant cards

Geforce 8800 GTX card could be the biggest card ever, we are not sure about 7900 GX2 as we never had those in our hands. 8800 GTX is 28 centimetres long. In comparison, we measured the Radeon X1950 XTX card the highest end ATI and it is 23.5 centimetres long.

Thats eleven inches! Think ill wait for the gen of these cards down a manufacturing process, and shrink the die/power consumption. The only case I have that fits that is a 3 and a half foot tall full server tower.

I`ll make it fit in my case, if they send me one for testing.

A Dremel makes allmost everything possible.

Until they reach a thermal wall and have to go back to their mobile series of products, designed by a team in Israel, and start building on that from scratch to design a powerful yet not power hungry video card.

they will end up calling it the GeCore series....

and SLI will become GeCore Duo.

One can only hope


Although on that line of thought, 40% performance gains doesn't sound like much in this case :grum:
