TOP and OC models

We've managed to get our hands on pictures of two different 9500GT cards from Asus, although on the surface, they look more or less identical. The two models are the EN9500GT TOP/DI/512M and the EN9500GT OC/DI/512M.

We're not exactly sure what the difference between the two are, as the two cards use the same cooler, but we'd expect the OC model to be clocked higher than the TOP model. Due to the Asus TOP cooler, both cards end up being dual slot, which seems like a bit of a waste on what will ultimately only be a mid-range card and we can't quite understand the need for such a large cooler on these cards.

Both cards have an HDMI, DVI and D-sub connector and it seems like Asus has decided to ditch the analog TV connectivity option in favor of HDMI. Both cards also have an SLI connector.
