I agree, mostly, but...


Notice that there could have been 3x8-pin connectors. Notice a lack of missing onboard components. I see it as 1x 8-pin for each gpu, 6-pin is mem, and noticed how W1zz was limited to 1310 memory...

Obviously they could have pumped up the ram speed, but it looks like th actual memory ICs to match aren't ready yet, or are far too expensive...

And when it costs what it does, I think it truly pays to be critical of every little part, but at the smae time, I've got to wonder why the actual 5870's are so long?
