Hey Candito, they're essentially the chips with the stock nVidia cooler --> http://www.evga.com/Products/Product.as ... P4-4992-KR
I'm not even sure EVGA has done anything special to them, since nVidia makes both the chips and the cooler....again, EVGA is great because of the sweet and cheap expandable warranty. They are intended to be sold to gamers... so if you want some rendering cards that are on 100% stress a lot of the time, the warranty is really a steal...
Also, I should note that in my pic I have the 4-way-SLi bridge on the cards. That one is actually not used in any technological kind of matter. It's just a really thick plate that keeps the cards tightly in place.
