i pronounce its AY-SUS

because it sounds coolest that way

and doesnt look retarded when you try to spell it

[HotHardwareVids]

@sharki9876 perhaps but that's not the way Asus employees pronounce it. :)

Now when will someone make a video of themselves taking the graphics card out of the box, then putting it into the computer, installing it and then using it? I would like to see that.

[Consumerofknowledge]

I like the logo animation at the beginning.

[chorinicpker]

@Consumerofknowledge my god i love that :p

[Consumerofknowledge]

@chorinicpker It's like getting a new video game, ripping the plastic off and them smelling the box...mmmm, new smell.

[chorinicpker]

[thyboys]

I got another morther board i cant find wich is beening a pain to find. can a A8N SLI Asus is this too compatible

[thyboys]

I am thinking of buying this card "Zotac GTX285" for my desktop and have been looking on the net to see if my mother board is compatible. I have a "MSI K9N SLI". Plz help :D

[blarson12]

Yes you can stack these cards thats why.

[steevn606]

how meny stream processors dose this card have.

[DahKeyLogger]

but it is a 2x6pin to 8pin. not the otherway around

[blarson12]

@9:23. You need it in case your power supply only has 8pin connectors.

[FudgePoly]

Maybe the dual 6 pin to 8pin is for plugging the dual 6pins into the card and the 8pin to an 8pin connection on the PSU.

[johnace01]

in the uk its a 4 pin thing 2 six pin

[strakunski]

i have got a gtx 285 and i love it...

[3Z3K13L08]

You can say it either way.

According to the proper English language pronunciation, it's meant to be spoken as "Aa-sus".

If you hang around enough different cultures, you'll learn that each do things differently, so it is okay to say it either way so there's no point going on about it.

[3Z3K13L08]

They are both 10.5 inches long (or 267mm).

[neoonik16]

his is the same size

[hagglefaen]

is this card smaller or bigger that gtx 260?

[HotHardwareVids]

OK, so tell that to the Asus Marketing Manager and PR Managers we work with.  They say it that way as well. AHH-Soos
