I wonder how many retail stores put these cards on display and if so I wonder how many people walked in and bought it.

"I want da card wit da anime chick."

I reckon that semi-porno pic makes the card and its box quite collectible, lol, since it's so cheeky and so unique. I'd certainly have it.

I almost think it's more strange that others who want more of that don't own up.

I'm sure there are tons of computer guys who would like the anime/hentai designs, it's just that they do not want to be labeled as a perv when they buy it and when people noticed they still have the box out, propped up near their computer so they can look at the chick on the cover.

I almost bought an HD 5750 with the 2nd gen cooler. :)
I like them.




Scythe Katana 3
IMO, a cooler BONK'd by TF2's Scout.


Ketchak's "Evolution of a Speices" waterblock for nVidia 8800




Prolimatech Genesis




MSI P35 Platinum Chipset heatsink rollercoaster

So, that's about it for me. Can't think of any other cooler that made me go :wtf:, for now.
