not necessarily, just a small hint of something so people can say, "HEY, that's an EVGA card!"
+1 Nvidia did an excellent job on this card but many of us like to have EVGA showing as well.
Exactly, dont get me wrong, the card is beautiful! But i like having something on there that tells me and others its an EVGA card.

One of the mods said a Hydro Copper version would be available in about 1 month.

Its time for an upgrade of the case man. My Corsair 800D is an old case but it's still a beast of a case. Check out a few random pix of 6990's, 580's and 590's in this thing. There's so big >.<

I currently am rocking a big 800d. And shes fine with any long card i can put in her. My reservoir was initially installed close to the board. But now i am ready. And i was considering getting another case and start a new project altogether. The only case that I personally would get is the Cosmos 2 just for the available space to play with. But I dont like it. Anything else is sub par for me, no offense guys. But I do consider airbrush paint jobs and window tinting and laser ethcing into Potential Project Considerations. And I pictured Cosmos 2 in Urban Camo. Some of you here have seen my previous work with the Haf X paint job and it still OWNS in appearance!!

Not only that, but he sold 2
What idiot spends $4200 on graphics cards that cost no more than 2100 from the retailer?

Man, it is quite tempting to sell a card for 2k each XD if you knew for a fact that the buyer was legit.

As tempting as it is, I never do that stuff. I work retail and had plenty of opportunity when new consoles launched to buy as many as I wanted...but to me it is just wrong to mark them up that much. I can see selling them to cover any cost you incurred...but to make a profit is something I really dont do.

Yup, it's unethical in my book, and I refuse to do that as well. But some people have no ethics. They'll pay for that sooner or later.
