    Really like the look of the cooler. I wonder how quiet it is ?

    I hope they bring hybrid cooling for the GTX 780 or 880 cards, that would be the way forward

    And the big question will it run Crysis with everything at max... But on a serious note spending big cash on the card is one thing, the drivers are free and for Amd at present they do not seem to be fairing that well...

    I remember when the first Ares card came out. Such a great piece of computer engineering. Seems Asus has pushed the boat out for the Ares 2. A watercooled and air-cooled GPU may just do the trick for later cards from Asus.

    This sort of thing scares me. I wouldn't be able to sleep if I know this was in the same room as me.

    Damn, can't wait to see a review of it. I would never buy one, but it'll be interesting to see how it holds up...
