so got my usual thing going on here with the length comparisons and the whatnots
so this is for the Radeon HT 6990 which as you guys may or may not
know already is one
huge video card so it is
exactly 1T long pretty
much pretty much exactly yes that's the word I was looking for okay which makes
it 30 1/2 cm long from the PCI back
plate all the way to the very end so this Compares quite favorably with
probably only one other card the 50970 which is the same length however
if we take some other cards like the single GPU
6970 which is just short of 11 in Long
work our way down to the GTX 580 which is 10 and 1/2 in long then down to the
6870 which is 9 and 78 in long and then
finally I've got a GTX 460 Hawk Edition here just for context uh so it's either
9 1/2 in long or it's stuck on there 9
and 1/2 in long with the Shroud or actually if you go by the PCB it is only
about 8 1/2 in long so that makes the
6970 or 6990 rather sorry the 6990 one
of the largest cards ever made for the
consumer Market it's also one of the heaviest it's quite a heavy card
although not compared to the ASUS Aries for example which is even heavier it's
got a shrouded back plate and yes it is quite long so if we were to measure this
in terms of cat lengths see I got a cat here eating my
garbage hey please don't eat
that see please don't knock over my garbage and eat it okay come here Cat
come on it's hard to grab a cat W have a
camera hanging around me there he is
okay come on stay up there okay so in terms of cat
lengths the 6990 is approximately oh okay about
about 665 of a cat so there you
go that is my new unit of measurement that I have
invented and that is my length video about the radon HD 6990 don't forget to
