Hopefully this will reduce the price of the lower cards, even though mine will be good for another year or two.
3 slots? dang looks like that's where my Desktop will stop upgrading at...

Actually not 3 PCI-E slots, but 3, 8-pin power connectors to supply electrical power to this graphics card.

the card weighs a ton and will require a special device to offer it an additional support, else it might very well just tear the PCIe slot apart.
No kidding. Look at the size of that freaking thing. I think if my PC saw that coming the dust mites might come running out screaming "Gojira!"

No official MSRP, but estimates are between $700-1200 USD.
