Colorful Unveils GeForce GTX 650 iGame AresX Graphics Card
Colorful unveiled its second graphics card based on the GeForce GTX 650. The GTX 650 iGame AresX builds on the feature-set of the original iGame, with overclocker-friendly features such as "One Key OC," voltage measurement points, higher clock speeds, and a better cooler. The new cooler uses a twin 8 mm-thick heat pipe design with a denser aluminum fin stack. It appears to use the same 90 mm fan as the original card. Colorful GTX 650 iGame AresX ships with NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of 1058 MHz core and 5.00 GHz memory, but at the push of a switch on the back-plate, the GPU is overclocked to 1158 MHz and memory to 5.20 GHz. The new card is expected to be priced at 800 RMB (around US $149).

the cooler looks like sports car
: cool :
I fail to understand why any gaming enthusiast would even think about paying an extra fee to have better cooling on a card that is not well suited for even the common gamer.
It can run Metro @ 11 FPS :laugh:
You've got the extra room thanks to the shroud anyways, use it!
However, when it's like this, why not have them on the back so that cable management can be neater?
In this instance they wouldn't be able to put it right at the back ie: where the pcie slot is as it looks like there are some components there already, they could just switch it round 90 degrees to be facing the back I agree.
Though even on a longer shroud it's not called for, my 7950 has both 6/8pin in this position and it's buggered up my cable management now as I have to run them straight from PSU to the card as going round the back of the MB tray they won't reach. My 570 I replaced had them at the back, much better placement imo.
you could probably run them on PCIe 2.0 x4 lanes anyway...
Tell me, what else does a typical poser need?
Looks as it might be fast? *Check!*
Labeled as a "fast OCed gamer card"? *Check!*
Is sort of cheap! *Check!*
Aww gee wiz! Poser's paradise :roll:
