Another note is that if this indeed to be called the GTX590 that may imply that this is not going to be the fastest dual GPU coming from Nvidia and is probably not the intended rival to AMD's Antilles dual GPU card. Perhaps Nvidia is leaving room for the GTX595........

The pic in post #56 is probably the GTX595 with dual GF110's.

Edit:
Looks like it's a dual 470, so dual 570 is not impossible:

That picture was released quite some time before and you ever notice that it was never released?

Probably because of the very reasons I mentioned, namely power draw and temperatures.

Well, the pic with the chick holding the card in post #56 was released on Dec 14th in a Korean article, no that long ago.   They probably changed the chips from 470 to 570.  Anyways, I think nvidia is letting their AIB partners to come up with their own dual GPU products this time. 

Here's the description of the Galaxy card translated from Korean:
GF110 published in dual-GPU card is shown by the length of the 40cm level, 8 +2 phase power configuration provides 8 +8 pin PCIe auxiliary power connectors, nF200 SLi SLi bridge chipset consists of the base can expect a high performance GF110 is also based on power consumption is expected to be quite high.

You just don't get it do you? The card was not released. There is no where you can go a buy a dual GTX470 card. The card exists as prototype and one can only assume it was never released to the public because of it's power requirements that would far exceed PCI-E specifications and knowing the 4 series cards 1st hand the heat output from them would be significant.

Yes Nvidia could if they wanted to just shirk safety guidelines and release something that draws way more than what it currently supported by PCI-E specs and risk getting blamed and sued for imminent hardware failure like melted motherboards, blown PSUs, fires...ect. Yes if they wanted to they could just do that. But the point of the matter is that they won't have have not done so. These cards like the prototype dual GTX480 card exist as exercises and there is no doubt that Nvidia tried and probably tried hard to make something like it happen, but in the end they have yet to succeed.

In order for that to be a possibility, they would need to get power and TDP's well under what they are with the current high end single GPUs like the GTX570 and GTX580. This in all likely hood will probably not happen until a die shrink of the current Fermi architecture or by castrating what they currently have to get the desired results.

In the end the card in question in the post is all but confirmed at this point to be a dual GF104 or GF114 card and not something higher.

I think your're the one that is not getting it!  The card has not been released, so what?  They're able to make a prototype, and that means it's possible.   Whether they wanna release it is another story.
 
Anyway, the point is that the TDP of 570 is only 219W, even lower than that of a 470.  And don't forget the the TDP GTX 275 is 215W, and they could make a 295 of them. 

Someone should take one of these cards, and a Radeon 5970 4 GB Sapphire Toxic, and run them in Quad SLI/Fire on a LUCID HYDRA motherboard and see what sort of havoc this results in.  Almost positive it would be a train wreck performance wise, but I just want to see what would happen. 

I agree with Crap, READ!!!!! This is becoming a joke!!!! 

this  look like 2 GTX 470 On One Cards
i need bench GTX 580 VS this New Mosta !!!

All real info points to the card being dual 460 or 560 GPUs

well then whats the point.  a single 580 will give equivilent performance without any drawbacks of sli.

 
This is a propaganda card to get the fastest card away from ATI (5970), they wont care how the quality of the gaming experience is aslong as it pumps out high enough max FPS to give it the highest average (who cares if it drops down to as low as 5 FPS, aslong as it shoots up to 200+ every now and then to bump up the average its all good)
 
Its very likely 2 GTX 560 GPU's (GF114) since the timing would be right for this cards release.
 
I would stay away from it, Dual GPU cards and Quad SLI overall suck, its much better to stick to single GPU cards and buy 2 or 3 of them, 4 if you have money to burn and dont care you get very little performance gain for that 4th card and a whole lot of SLI/Compatibility issues with games.  Atleast with 4 single GPU cards its easy to swtich to Tri SLI with 1 card for dedicated PhysX, you can do this for Dual GPU cards like the GTX 295 but it doesnt work very well.
 
Alas people will freak out about his card and buy into the hype due to the usual hysteria from those with a h-on for Nvidia or have a fetish for hardware.

The whole point is, 2D/3D surround on one card, It is also rumored to be cheaper the one GTX580 giving about the same performace.

I'm sorry if this sounds like a dumb question but if you have a board with 2 PCIe x16 slots and it supports SLI, would you be able to run 2 dual GPU cards or just one since that is technically SLI already?

oh yes very very good Idea. Love it PLUS 1. Can we get a blue ribbon for this guy. Probably not, but I bet if you do exactly what you said you will get one.

I wonder how this card will be for folding. From what i've read the 580 averages 18k with 20k+ best case, and the 460 averages 9k, 10k+ best case. 
So...assuming this card is dual 560s and not 460s, and its priced at the same or a bit less then a 580...*speculates*

 Haven't seen anything lately but last I heard the GTX 590 would be dual GF 110 chips. But haven't heard anything else about the card. One site guessed it would release after the antilles from ATI did so they could one up ATIs dual gpu card.

We gonna hear anything new on this card any time soon. I mean all the information lines have kinda gone dead since CES.
 
On a side note, it looks like Nvidia is coming along well on the 28nm chip designs. Hopefully Kepler will be on time to come out round the end of the year. Christmas anyone? If it happens around that time, it looks like I might give up on waiting on a 585, and plan on waiting for kepler.

most importantly, does it come pre-equipped with the backplate.

Here is a pretty convincing look at the EVGA dual GPU 590 GTX. It is not in english so I cant confirm but it clearly is a dual GPU. Looks Awesome! I WANT!
