Galaxy Announces GeForce GTX 650 Green Edition

[btarunr]

Galaxy rolled out an energy-efficient GeForce GTX 650 graphics card, the Green Edition. It is one of the very few GTX 650 graphics card models that lack 6-pin PCIe power connectors, and rely entirely on the PCIe bus for power. The card uses near-identical PCB and cooler designs to the GTX 650 GC, except the 6-pin power connector is absent. The card sticks to NVIDIA-reference clock speeds of 1058 MHz core, and 5.00 GHz memory. It packs 1 GB of GDDR5 memory across a 128-bit wide memory interface. Expect the GTX 650 Green Edition to cost around US $110.

The Radeon 5800/5700 series looked like the batmobile, I remember Asus making a card that purposely looked like an F1 racecar.

not bad...without a 6 pin it could probably be the most powerful card that doesnt need external power

does any one know if those GPU are rejects from production as not stable enought and then downclocked?
I wonder why other vendors just don't offer no pci-e 6 pin connection to boot but still have the connection onboard for oc purposes?
