Has anyone seen this video card yet?

Looks like they took a GeForce FX 5700 card and combined it with a modified version of the Zalman ZM80-HP. Seems like a pretty good out of the box silent video card.

Isn't that the Zalman 80D sink?

What a horrible model number. I saw the 980 and thought you forgot a zero and it was an ATI 9800.

It's great that someone make a silent option for the Nvidia line but man that is so HUGE! This takes the prize as the passive cooling sandwich.
