Speaking about ‘the pipes’; as many of you say, the “Eehw it only has 12 pixel pipes” factor, the standard GeForce 6800 offers an excellent gaming experience and it should since it is still in that high-end class, but for a far better price. This little gem here will cost you just 250 EUR which is an awesome price, versus performance versus original cooling versus what not. The one bummer has to be is the software-bundle though, but hey. Less games included in the end will save you money. On the other side, you do receive the component HDTV connector and a plethora of other cables.
Now this card has a very unique cooler. I’ve never seen one quite like it actually. How well does the card itself perform? Check out the review over at Guru3D.
