    Looks pretty nice. Reduces the hassle of setting both SLI and Watercooling up - but it all depends on the cost. Money money money!!!!!!

    Give me something like this with the 4870s and you've got me interested. With the 9800 GTX+? Not bothered.

    Same here... couldn't be bothered with this last horah of 2-3 year old tech. Just nVidia trying to ring as much money out of their previous work as possible since there latest release was a flop with those ludicrous prices.

    Its ATI all the way for me this time round

    Reduce temps by only 19 degrees.... Really, why not buy a couple of silent coolers to achieve this for no doubt more than half the price..

    Stupid expensive exercise.

    Not even 19°. 19 PERCENT! Even at load of 80°C+ you wont see a 19° drop.

    Still, might be tough slapping a couple of big silent air-coolers on two of these in SLI.

    What a nice stuff indeed.

    However it could be a little bit late. Expecting the similar stuff appears ASAP on x260/x280.
