ASUS Matrix GTX 580 and MARS II desktop graphics cards revealed to be crazy 3-PCI slot cards

It’s been quite some time since we saw any ‘extreme’ graphic cards from Asus, and there it was, a new and welcome news about Asus’s extreme enthusiast range of cards, something that they’re good at.

Asus is said to be preparing on the launch of two new cards at the upcoming Computex 2011 at Taiwan. The two cards are the MARS II and Matrix GTX 580. The Matrix will come in two flavors — standard and Platinum — both with 1.5GB of RAM and an enormous dual-fan cooling solution that eats up a jaw-dropping three PCI slots. I think I just jizzed.

Though we’ve yet to seen any pics of the MARS II, the 3GB, dual-GPU behemoth is bound to be even more massive — we wouldn’t be surprised if ASUS had to provide a breakout box for whatever cooler it strapped to those pair of GTX 580 cores. Why not just slap some waterblocks on these, since they’re most probably going to be bought by extreme enthusiasts anyway.

Prices are of course unavailable, yet, but seriously I can’t imagine the price for these two monsters.
