What an utterly beautiful card! Nice review and images. While the OC adds some it is probably not significant or even noticed while gaming, all the same this baby will just tear up anything thrown at it. I hope the $399 price tag holds, maybe I will pick one up vice waiting for the 2gb version which I wouldn't be able to afford anyways. Now the next question is where can I buy one from?
