Pctuning posted a review for a short time and quickly pulled it. Here's a mirror of the images posted in the article.
The card looks to be pretty much identical to slightly faster than the GTX550, so depending on pricing it may trigger another round of Nvidia price cuts. I wouldn't hold my breath waiting for that though, because margins are already razor thin in this segment of the market, which is why we are seeing the introduction of this new product based on salvaged dies instead of price cuts of the older (and arguably better) SKUs which would've been the more consumer friendly option.
Heatsink shroud assembly and dimensions identical to the HD6870.
That 63 fps looks to be a typo and is most likely only 53.
