I bought a pair of these and they are great, especially at 360$each.....Yeah they run hotter than the GTX285 but not much and they overclock really good. This is probably the best bang for the buck right now (GTX285 at 460-500$) same chip, smaller process.

These video cards aren't for the faint of pocketbook and the price doesn't justify the performance that comes with. However if you are a PC enthusiast with cash to blow like myself who fancies having the best that's not an issue. I personally hate dual card solutions and don't have the motherboard for it anyways so this card is what best suits my needs. This card performs where it counts.. trouncing every other single card solution providing a good upgrade for 8800gtx/gts owners that have been salivating for a new video card since 2006. Downside is this thing gets hot and I mean really hot, I've never seen a piece of electronics put off more heat that the GTX280. There's also the fan noise that comes along with it. I don't find it distracting but anyone with a "silent" PC might.
