I have two of these bad boys in SLI in my LGA2011 rig. They will even run Metro2033 at 60fps at 2560X1600 resolution!!! What a beast these are... who needs water cooling when these will rock everything at max settings out-of-the-box, and if you want more you can easily OC them with AfterBurner. Beautifully smooth for BF3 running on three screens with 8 million pixels! Too bad these are now end of life but stock seems to trickle in every once in awhile and there are soom tools selling these used... what loser would do that?

Very good card, Handles Battlefield 3 on Ultra max graphics with x16AA doesn't dip below 45 FPS in the heaviest of situations, and i haven't even overclocked it yet. (im running a 26'' 1080p single monitor setup)
I would highly recommend this to any gamer who doesn't mind spending a little more than a regular gtx580, It might be card that will make you rethink going SLI, because this can handle it all.
