That's my baby the R9-285 2GB DCU II OC

I find this little bugger very sexy. First serious cooling on a LP card, I've seen.

GeForce 7900GTX 512MB. The good-looking reference cooler on this card was almost inaudible.

Galaxy GeForce 6800GT AGP 256MB. I really loved the color scheme of this card.

GeForce 7800GTX 256MB. This card was quite a step-up from the 6800GT above.

GeForce 8800 Ultra 768MB

And of course, the ATI X1950XTX 512MB GDDR4. Never really had it, but always loved the looks of it! It was also the first card to use GDDR4 memory.

There are cards on this thread with some really wicked coolers, keep 'em coming. :cool:

@kniaugaudiskis I really like that transparent 7900GTX and I'd really love to have one.

I've actually got an 8800 Ultra. It's a BFG one that I got brand new off eBay a few years ago for £100, complete with BFG t-shirt in the box. I've used it a couple of times, but now just leave it in its box, all pristine, as part of my NVIDIA collection.

This is completely off topic , i just couldn't stay away.

Yep, and the phrase has always referred to living organisms.

Not materialism.

It could be pink for all i care, s long as preformance is top tier, but the furyX does look sweet :peace:

That Nano is supposed to be in the same class as Fury. I like the idea of it being so small, and ripping down the curtains at the same time.

This waiting is killing me. I just hope prices here in Eu are overhyped due to launch. R9-390X for 644€ is crazy. Meaning this R9 Nano beauty will cost way more than I'm willing to pay...

The upcoming Quadro version of the Titan X, the M6000. I do like the green flash around it. I'll have two please.

Released in Dec. 2014. There was a post somewhere on this site showing multiple of them in a rig.

No it wasn't it's new. You might have seen pre-release pictures of it.

Here's the article I got it from:

The article is about drivers being released that show a M5000 and M4000 are to be released, the M6000 is released already.

qubit · Jun 28, 2015

Ok, yeah, you're right. They're just trying to confuse me with that picture.

Calibre 9600GT. It's classy monochrome, lots of detail yet pretty curvy

petedread · Jul 28, 2015

Another good looking modern card, I think, is the Asus DC3 980ti or any of their cards with the new DC3 cooler. I think those Gainward Phantom coolers look good also.

I still love the classic look of this card. 8800 Ultra. Miss it.
