Radeon HD 5850 Pictured

[Unknownm]

Rumored pictures have popped up of ATI's DX11 Radeon HD 5850, or at least a variant of it. From what we can see, there's an incredibly long PCB for a single-GPU accelerator, an elaborate monolithic cooler, and a single 6-pin power connector. (Read more)

I was really hoping for something shorter.. Maybe one of the sub vendors will make one.

And yes, quite rendered looking.

I hate to admit it, but I have to agree with Linus! We are going to be paying a hell of a lot of our hard earned cash for DX11 cards!

Both are obvious renders in my mind. They did a better job on the first but still noticable. Get me a close up of the actual gpu with all the righting and the cameramans reflection on it then ill believe it.
