    I was thinking the exact same thing. I had a feeling ASUS themselves would pronounce it as "Aseuss" because of their Mandarin dialect. I think if you go to any part of SE Asia, you'll hear "Aseuss".

    Based on its spelling, it should be pronounced A-Suss so that's what I'll stick with.

    Seems like nobody will be selling these as a standalone either so your talking at least 4 grand to get one.

    I'm pretty sure my ATI 9800xt from back in the day ran at like 85-95 degrees C. Hard to believe under load that thing is only 65.

    I used to have a voodoo 5, which was pretty big, but this one is about twice as thick. (I hear thickness is what counts)

    I had a 9800xt too. Then it died, sent it in and they gave me a x800 in return.
