    Seems like someone took a closer look (and photos), so never you mind. Seriously, who's to blame for all the grease marks on such a lovely card?

    Mars wins, but it's not a singlepcb design, so no-no for F@H, while the new 295 with single pcb is singleslot with watercooling, mean 6/7 of these on P6T6/7 :O Instead of 3 max.
    But sure, for gaming Mars>regular 295.

    Supposing you had the cash and a large enough power supply you could effectively run 7 GTX 295's on the P6T7 mobo!

    These are still dual slot cards, however you could still plug them in with the use of these

    It has actually be done, cant find the picture (this is with the old 295's bare in mind)

    Once its on a single pcb you will be able to water cool it with a single slot waterblock similar to the one for the GTX 260

    Smart to play with shades, they shield your eyes from the monitors harsh light - increasing the play time substantially.
    So much for thinking, once again.
