Being launched alongside with the mid range 7600GT is the higher end Geforce 7900 family of cards. This family comes with 2 variants, the lower clocked GT, and the flagship GTX model. We've found both variants, but first we'll take a look at the ASUS EN7900GT. Spotted at Fuwell, this card comes in ASUS's traditional huge packaging. Perhaps with such a large box, it might grab more attention from people sourcing for a new kickass video card. This card comes with standard clock speeds of 450MHz/660MHz (1320MHz DDR) and does not feature any pre-overclocking out of the box. It comes with 3 years distributor's warranty and is selling at $599.

 

We're not joking when we say the packaging of this EN7900GT is as large (if not larger) then most motherboard boxes.

This is how the ASUS EN7900GT looks like. Like the 7600GT, you'll soon find out that all 7900GTs would be identical to each other, save for the extra sticker on the heatsink.

As stated in our launch article, the reference 7900GTs comes with cooling solutions similar to those 7600GT. This comes as a surprise as the 7900GT can be considered as a high end product, but yet it could run cool enough like it's mid range card? ASUS follows what the NVIDIA reference card used, popping a cooler similar to the 7600GTs we've seen on the card.

Like the 7600GTs we've seen, the ASUS EN7900GT comes with dual DVI output on top of the standard TV Out on the left of this picture.

Being a high end card, the ASUS EN7900GT requires a 6 pin PCI-E power connector to drive the card.
