Tis a joke.

Note: Will not fit in most PC cases without slight case modifications. Card comes with a Honda diesel generator for power. Not FCC approved. Keep away from water, small children, air traffic control towers, munitions dumps, and pacemakers. Extended use may cause cancer. Shipped via truck freight. Estimated retail price $5,743.56 (USD)

I like the picture on the bottom left that says "Extremely Cool Looking Electronic Componentry". Yeah, that's what you gotta go for when buying a video card. Who cares if its fast? Does it look cool?

Yeah, that's what I mean. It just amazes me that something like that little phrase is actually what some people look for. Y'know, I can understand wanting something to look cool if you're gonna have like a modded case with a window in it and all, but one of my friends made the choice between two cards based on that as his final tie breaker. He was like "Well, they were both really equal performance-wise, but THIS ONE looked cooler". I'm standing there thinking "Uh....you have NO window in your case. What are you gonna do, take the cover off every now and then to see how "cool" your card looks?"

Lots of time? Nah. It wouldn't take me long to do something like that. I mean, all that's basically used is the clone tool and a drop shadow.

Hey juppy, you'd be surprised how many people actually do that.

Onboard 3-pin fan connector for every VSA-100 chip. Fans not included
That'd be a lot of money for some vid-card cooling fans!
