Photo of the day: ASUS V9999 on GeForce 6800 Ultra (NV40)
There are just some hours left until the official announcement of NVIDIA´s NV40 GPU family. To attenuate your foretaste we offer you the images of a GeForce 6800 Ultra-based solution from ASUS.
Well, it´s not a "photo" in the true sense. It lacks connectors and is more of a design concept. Nevertheless, you can already see that the card will occupy a single slot, have a unified GPU/memory heatsink, and feature popular "turbine" design. Nothing monstrous, just the power requirements are not clear yet. Anyway, we´ll all get to know it later today. So, for now, take a look at ASUS V9999 images:
