Quoting stoopid
Great review. They haven't shrunk the card size I see.
Why no comparison benchmarks?
I'm glad you liked the review. I don't forsee board sizes changing significantly anytime soon. I think the market has established sizes that consumers will tolerate and the manufacturers will continue to cram as much as they can into these form factors. Also, if you look at the pictures of the VRM area on this board you can see that there is room for expansion. This makes it easier to release higher end parts in the future using the existing package.
Unfortunately I did not have any other cards available at the time of review. However, I tried to pick benchmarks that people are familiar enough with that a fairly accurate assessment could be made.
