ASUS Radeon HD 5870 TOP and HD 5850 DirectCu Pictured
ASUS is readying a new factory-overclocked, custom-design graphics card based on the ATI Radeon HD 5870 GPU, likely named the EAH5870-TOP. The company is also readying the Radeon HD 5850 based EAH5850 DirectCu. While the EAH5870-TOP is expected to have high out of the box clock speeds, a higher performance sporty-looking cooler, the EAH5850 DirectCu relies on a more function-centric cooler design that boasts of being 35% quieter and 20% cooler [than reference AMD cooler]. Further details, such as clock speeds are not known, but it is expected that ASUS will release these during CeBIT 2010, later this quarter.

Donanimhaber just used them, and forgot to mention where they got them.
Sure, nothing will use it in this x86, 2GB address space limited era... but it'll be future proof, and awesome :D
Your Prayers have been answered!!!!
