![]() I do have enough room for SLI, but even thinking about it seems funny to me because of how much room it would require in my case. No, I did not, I have this in a HAF X (gigantic) case, and it just BARELY fits. I came from a GTX 580 so when I saw the reviews say "IT's HUGEEE" I thought, yeah, whatever, I know big. The ONLY downside to this card is that, as others have said, it's big, really, really big. When the next generation (Pascal) hits the market I may upgrade, but I don't see the need right now. Performance wise, again, this card is just stupid fast. With this setup I have never seen temps above 60C, even running a extreme performance loop on Unigine and other benchmarks. With my customer fan profile, the cards operate at 30% no matter how low the temps, and then they gradually ramp up at around 50C+. I used MSI Afterburner to create a customer fan profile, and yes, I understand and appreciate the software design of these cards to not even turn on (and therefore be inaudible) until they hit about 50-60C, but due to this when they do get hot they get hot quickly, and the fan has to ramp up to keep it below 70C. This was an upgrade from a pair of GTX 580 in SLI, and this single card blows them away! I would say the most impressive thing about it is that it has significantly higher performance than my old setup, and does so (for the most part) whisper quiet. ![]() This card is the most impressive graphics card I have ever owned, and I have owned a LOT of them.
