Colorful unveiled the world's first passive-cooled (fanless) GeForce GTX 680 graphics card




http://www.techpowerup.co...680-Graphics-Card.html

 
Man this card would go beautifully in my rig. 
 
 
_Nite_ 

EVGA 8800 GTS KO ACS3 Edition, I had the 320MB model and really liked the look of it. 

 
 
 
This card looks pretty awesome as well. I like the detail they put in on the shroud itself. 
 
Also the Titan does look cool as someone mentioned above but all it looks like is a glorified 690. Not bad but even though I would never see one in my system I was hoping to see something way different then whats already been seen.

This card, the EVGA GTX285 Classified. I still want one. The GTX295 posted earlier as well as the GTX690 and Titan. But I like the 285 Classified the most. Looks elegant yet sophisticated. Two words I never thought I would use on a piece of computer hardware.

I can't choose just one.  The 8800 Ultra stands out:



EVGA 9800GTX and 9800GTX+


EVGA 9800GX2
 
EVGA GTX 295



EVGA GTX 580 Classified


And now the Titan.


 
+ 1 for the ultra it still looks great and i think that the large protruding fan is still a valid design for current cards
 
The titan looks good as well, I'm not a fan of the smooth look, although the Red 295 was a classic

I have triple 580 GTX hydro, and their single slot solution is just absolutely stunning to look at. So clean...

I like the look of the up-and-coming Asus ROG Poseidon, it's either going to be on a 780 or 770 card and features water cooling and air cooling as a hybrid cooler.

And now the Titan.


I will put my vote in there, the subdued industrial look is nice.  Bright colored plastic is almost always a loser in my book.

8800 GT reference gets my vote as well.  It is one of few inanimate objects I use the word "sexy" to describe.  Simply elegant.
 
If I get to choose a second, the GTX690 would be it.  Toughest looking card ever made.

"Origin games! Awesome! I can't support Steam because I installed Origin first, and I'm too lazy, irrational, and stubborn to install an entire second program on my computer."

would have been better if it was a 100% clear shroud (like made out of plexiglass) instead of a semi clear one.

Hmmm It would have to be the Titan or the XFX double-D R9 card that glows.
