EVGA: Now it's getting silly

Was just looking at that before flipping ove here..I only wonder if they speed binned these before putting them in production..Could severely limit OC potential of the vanilla version.I would imagine tho that the vanilla version should at least reach the"FTW"speeds safely..unless speedbinning has already been done..The memory is 0.8ns so 2500 on the mem should be easy..Not sure about the core and shaders..
 
Yeah I hate that crap two. All they really need is a stock and an overclocked model to keep me happy.
 
EVGA is definitely getting silly. The card wants to feel me. The computers are in the back, and they are twisting up a philly. GET SILLY!

Damnit I hate that song!
 
"FTW" edition = FTL

And I thought video card names couldn't get any more stupid.
 
i'm waiting for them to bring back the acs3 edition with a freaky overclock and the 15 pound cooler on top of it.
 
SO TEMPTING >< Super Duper OC one. Geez don't know what to do. Hopefully i can wait to see what ATI has to offer this time around first.
 
I was looking at the water block that EVGA has... is it me or does it still look like the block is dual slot cause in some of the photos the PCI slot below the block is covered?
 
The block covers the back side RAM

Sweet looking block! I heard it weighs 3 lbs though lol... Tri SLI with those you'll have 9lbs of copper

I meant if you look at the pictures of the total thickness of the block, it almost looks to be a double slot waterblock. In the pictures it looks as though the PCI slot below the waterblock isn't usable because it is covered by the block. I was just wondering if that is just photography making it look like that or if that is how thick the block really is.
 
i just got the GTX 280 WTFLOL@YOUIMSOLEETROFLCAKE XXX Edition for 1 million dollars. booooyaaaaaaa!!!!

Personally, I don't mind the different overclocked editions. I ordered a GTX 280 FTW from TigerDirect (my rationale: if I'm already dropping $650 on a video card, an extra $50 for a decent manufacturer overclock isn't a huge deal). I just don't yet feel comfortable overclocking my GPU myself; the only thing that I've ever kept overclocked is my G0 stepping Q6600 (a.k.a. the "25% Overclocking for Dummies" edition).
 
EVGA, we know you read this. The FTW was cool for the mobo but now you've just ruined something that was cool. Why? Because it's something that you do once as a big hit and it went over well and we liked it becuase it was unique and ballsy, now your just milking it.

And by the way, all the video card options are stupid. You don't need 4 varieties. A normal version and an OC version is all you need.
