I know it's a newer card.... so I don't mean to be a poser and I have never owned one. But I think the Asus 5870 Matrix card is the best looking I have ever seen. Especially with it lighting up the way it does.... ohh wee that looks awesome!

HD 6970 is single-GPU. HD 6990 is the dual-GPU "Antilles" card.
