The folks at SlashGear have gotten themselves the mother of all leaks (to computer hardware enthusiasts, at least). A source at ASUS has sent them pictures of a PCB board for the ASUS MARS II. For those who don’t remember, the ASUS MARS which came out last year was dual GTX 285 chips on a single card, with 4GB of VRAM. ASUS looks to follow that up with a Fermi-enabled card.

The pictures that the source leaked clearly show two NVIDIA GF100 GPUs on a single graphics card. The source told SlashGear that the chips will be the equivalent of two GTX 480 – which will probably need a small nuclear reactor to power it, but I digress.

Like the first ASUS MARS card, it’ll be an internal SLI connecting the two card, so for all intents and purposes, you’ll be running two GTX 480 cards in SLI. Each GPU will have its own dedicated VRAM, we understand, most likely to the tune of 4GB that the first MARS card had.

Nothing solid on how much power it’ll require – but note in the picture above it has three (!) 8-pin PCI power plugs on the card. Yes, you’ll likely need to invest in a new power supply to run this beast. Also, we expect that ASUS will sell it in a limit quantity, like the first MARS card.

Considering the horsepower that the GF100 chips put out – don’t be surprised if this MARS II card surpasses the recently unveiled ASUS ARES card (dual Radeon HD 5870 on a single PCB) as the world’s most fastest single-card configuration.
