There is a lot of talk about being reminded of owls. Not what I'm reminded of. I see a tech version of the restaurant logo for "Hooters". If they were going for the "pasties" look, they succeeded.

xfx has been doing double-d(issipation) for many years, down to 6950 from 2010, but how old is asus dual?
Well, that is one ugly card. Might work the card being short, allowing more airflow on the rest of the cooler.
But oh boy, that PowerColor Red Devil Vega is looking sexy, also I see that they do the same, they have some vents on the back for improved airflow.

First off, you assume I'm a huge fan of the Fool's Edition ,which I'm not.
Second...
"GeForce 700 series cards were first released in 2013, starting with the release of the GeForce GTX Titan on February 19, 2013"
Try harder next time pls
Here's a 2010 GPU for good measure, in case you still wanted to type up another smart reply - you feel me now?
Titan are full metal just so you know. nvidia reference design for gpu starting from the x70/xx70 are full metal since the gtx 700. Would be nice if you could get your fact correct.

You aren't aware those are metal shrouds, huh? And it was late 2013 IIRC.

I like the look of the card. Now I want to know what the heat dissipation performance is like.

to each own, but man that is FUGLY.
the full cover/shroud type with dual fan sure may look big and blocky but at least the lines are clear/defined to try and make it unique and could allow the maker to incline the fans to aid in ejecting hot air or sucking in cool air (if they bothered) but to completely leave bare spots, cut the cover back to "upsell" their model of an expensive enthusiast class GPU makes me expect them to have a lower price of entry than the full covered/shroud types which we know will not happen.
So instead have a FUGLY card, as someone else said owl eyes, XFX should have done exactly that, give it fancy lighting, cover the one bare spot a bit better or something, I do not see this cooling the best TBH ^.^

@XFXSupport , this looks like a wolf in sheep's clothing! Is this the Vega NANO? 
If EK supports this card, coupled with only DP outputs. Then this is a single slot, itx dream! Well done.

I doubt it through the size that it appears to be, the heatsink size, the use of dual 8 pin power connectors and the twin fans
just for an example the "original" Nano (AMD wise and XFX specifically to illustrate my point)

I understand that, I have a nano but if you look closer, the PCB on this card is very very short. Nano size. I think your looking at it from a power consumption, where I am looking at it from a water-cooling perspective.

I suppose that is true, looking at where the screws are mounted on the PCB looks about nano sized, guess that is benefit of HBM style memoryI understand that, I have a nano
they really should do one that blows heat out the butt end of it, or, one that has a rad built into it..keep pcb short like that use the extra room afforded for rad section O.O- Joined
