cool. sparkle, sorry I mean't GALAXY, made a single slot gtx 260. i want one and didn't find it for sale. i rekon a single slot 570 will sell very quick and may be limited

EDIT (for murphy's message below): I mean I want a Sparkle gtx 260 single slot, though its as rare as hen's teeth, it released. i think its called razer. And Ferrari didn't mass produce the ENZO an that'd sell well

EDIT: Its not Sparkle, sorry, its GALAXY: http://www.overclock3d.net/news/gpu_...slot_gtx_260/1

1. its not released yet

2. why would think that if it sells well they make more how companies work

Being a single slot card where Nvidias'and everyone elses are dual slot suggests that they made some compromises to the cards' hardware and or it's features.

I wonder how they compare against the dual slot cards. I'm not familiar with Sparkle or this V Go so I will have to look in to it.

If sparkles 570 or 580 V Go single slot is equal to the dual slot cards in every way I might give them a try?

EDIT

NOT ARGUMENTATIVE

Lol...that's not a single slot 570 GTX . It's a GTS 450 Sparkle one I believe

Why show two completely different GPU's when there talking about their new GTX 570...sorry, I don't get it.

It is a nice looking card though (the GTX 570) but out of the two pictured it's not a single slot GTX 570 card. Only the older (October, 2010) GTS 450 Sparkle one is a single slot

looks very nice - hopefully there will be some reviews of the sparkle cards somewhere to see how they compare to the reference cards

lol now I dont quite understand your 2nd point :/ xD

Are you trying to say if the product sells well then they will make more?

Indeed they will but small company's like sparkle will work as fast as they can but their will always be a backlog of orders if its that successful
