ASUS EAH4890 FORMULA
ASUS reckons this one is inspired by Formula One racing cars, and its aesthetics certainly give that impression.
Featuring an ATI Radeon HD 4890 GPU, the card sports a unique cooling solution that promises to increase heat dissipation by up to 33 per cent when compared to ATI's reference design. It'll also operate 12.4dB quieter, says ASUS.
Unique to the card is a "proprietary Micro Surface Treatment" and a fan sporting ASUS' dust-proof design. That's the message from ASUS, but let's now beat around the bush - this card just looks damn cool. Complete specs are as follows:
