Benchmark Reviews posted a review on the ASUS ENGTX260 Matrix GeForce GTX 260

The build quality of the product is well above average, especially the assembly of the PCB with its hundreds of components, all precisely positioned and soldered. You do see some variability in this from different suppliers; it's not a given. In addition all the components and materials are first rate.

What more can be said about the performance of a GTX260-216? The ASUS performs like a reference design when first plugged in. After that, fire up the supplied iTracker software and overclock it to your heart's content. Feel free to max out both the fans; they're quiet enough to run at full speed, unlike some of the radial blowers found on the boxy units. When you're done gaming, two-three clicks later, you can throttle it back down to power-save mode and sleep easy knowing that you aren't wasting excess energy, heating up the planet with unused clock cycles.

The ASUS ENGTX260 Matrix is not currently listed for sale in the US... yet. The only place it shows up is on the ASUS Global sight right now, so it's difficult to measure value for this product. There is a wide price range for GTX260-based video cards; Newegg lists them from $169.99 to $264.99, all of them 896MB versions with 216 shader cores. Of course the highest price models are factory overclocked on the order of 675MHz-GPU Core and 2300MHz-RAM. For the end-user's sake, let's hope these vendor supply the higher spec memory chips on those cards.
