You'd think that Gigabyte's triple-fan AMD Radeon HD 7970 graphics card qualifies as a big and bad beast, but that's nothing compared to what Yeston came up with.
For some reason or other, Yeston decided that a dual-slot cooler was not big enough, so it added a quad-slot one.
Yes, you read it right: the new design has a heatskin so massive that, when you add the two fans on top of it, it takes up four expansion slots.
The fans measure 120mm in diameter and use 18 impeller-style blades each.
Unfortunately, the card's performance specifications are a mystery, the same as the reason for actually inventing such a massive cooler.
We'd be sorely disappointed if Yeston left the stock clock speeds as they were, although we suppose stranger things have happened.
