Video cards – we’ve come full circle

I wonder how many people remember the Voodoo series of video cards? For me, those were the first video cards for gaming. Well, I think we’ve finally come full circle in the amount of fans and the length. Video cards were pretty compact, even the high end ones. Not any more. In fact, my $200 6870 takes 2 slots and extends almost the entire length of the case. Forget about fitting one of these in a media PC case, even a full size on.

The old Voodoo 5.
