Just the normal 4gb version, I don't see a difference between the 2 except the price and a pathetic 50MHZ overclock :shadedshu:

Thats cool bro. The normal one comes with the same huge cooler right?

So probably you can manually OC it to Toxic speeds.

They both have pretty much the same clock speeds. :wtf:

I thought the normal 4GB one had the same clocks as the 2GB one. :eek:

So the "TOXIC" part is just for the show lol. Total ripoff. I hope the ASUS ares is cheaper than the toxic :cool:

So did you already purchase the 4gb one?
