Sparkle unveiled the Arc B580 Titan OC Nox graphics card. This is essentially a color variant of the blue-colored Sparkle B580 Titan OC, and the white Sparkle B580 Titan Luna OC. The Titan OC Nox comes in an all-black color scheme with a few red accents. The card is 2 slots thick, but is 31.5 cm long, with a metal backplate. The cooler uses three 70 mm axial airflow fans to ventilate an aluminium fin-stack heatsink. Design aside, the Nox comes with identical specs to the Luna OC and the original Titan OC, with GPU boost frequency of 2740 MHz against 2670 MHz Intel reference speeds. The total board power (TBP) limit is set to 200 W, and the card relies on a single 8-pin PCIe power connector, besides the PCI-Express slot for power.

One 8-pin and 3 fans, two should be good to go.

Right? Why is no one competing to make the smallest while still quiet cards so more people can fit them into any case aka more sales. Or are they really banking on people buying the biggest physical card thinking it'll be the fastest? Difference between biggest most overclocked graphic card and the cheapest one you can get with exact same GPU is maybe few fps difference in games, certainly nothing you can even feel and you instantly pay 50+ € more for that. You may just as well buy a higher tier GPU with less "advanced" cooler and benefit way more from that extra cost than spending it on unnecessarily oversized cooler.

Because this card consumes nearly 200 watts under a gaming load.

That's not entirely it. Companies do research into what sells and how a card looks has a lot to do with it. People will buy a cooler looking card over one that's not. This has gone on for almost as long as video cards have existed. It's also why you don't see green or tan PCBs on motherboards anymore and everything has LEDs and logos all over it.

PC gaming is selling a lifestyle and an image to a target group because it works.

You could say the same for dual fans because you could always use a blower design.

I echo the others that comment about smaller cards. lots of ITX cases out there that could use an upgrade, given he current small Intel cards are like A380 series.

I know there is a LP B570 in the works for Q3 i think, but nothign about any B580s.

- NGL when used card shopping I actually love the OEM HP/Dell/etc models of cards because most have very plain coolers and the sort of retro green PCB.

They also tend to be a little cheaper than the RGB vomit stuff too, so you may have a point.

Why not bring out one with two 8 pin power sockets and a 500W limit.
Let's see what Intel can really do.

There are 4 pipes. This card is identical to the original blue Sparkle Titan that was already reviewed here.
