As you can see, ASUS has chosen to use a kind of modular design where the two cores are located on the back and one on the front, each on their own daughter card. The cores are directly cooled by heatsinks and heatpipes that transfers the heat away from the cores to the heatsink located in the rear of the card, which in turn is cooled by a water block.
Four DVI ports which can be used with up to four monitors, when CrossFire is deactivated.
ASUS Planning a 3-GPU 3850 card?
