But they are open air cards. The heat would be even more unbearable.

Which is why I like my EVGA cards

They are nice, if not loud.

 

But at least you can feel the power.

Our Father Birb has taught us with His humble heart and gentle wing the way of the bob. Let us show Him our reverence and follow in His example.

They are still going after 4.5 years of being overclocked to the max. I like to HEAR the power as opposed to seeing it on screen haha :D

I have found that all three 465s perform similar to my old GTX 770 in games that take full advantage of SLI.

I can't say for his 465s, but my 480 was almost exactly as fast in Dirt 3 as my 760 was, and my single 580 was barely faster than my 760 in Dirt 3. Not that that answers your question, but it might be some perspective. Kinda. In Dirt 3 at least.

Two 465s are supposed to be as fast as one 480, at least on 2010 geforce drivers...

Well you guys inspired me to take off the old side panel and take some quick shots of it in its current state in my dorm. Gone are the old blue LED Rosewill fans and in are the new Bitfenix fans.

knowing people with less noise are already complaining.

I love the noise! It reminds me that I'm in-game and my beasts are consuming energy at in insatiable rate :P

This build is pretty nice

 

How are the GPUs?

They're hot, loud, and power hungry. Performance? meh somewhere around a GTX 770

Cant see the pic, but My 580s can manages 860 at that voltage.

My Primary card can do 970MHz at that voltage, I guess the other two weren't exactly winning tickets lol

Yeah, my primarily was able to do 920, secondary can do 890.

I'm considering modding the BIOS on my cards to allow 1.212v but I would need water to cool that.

Funny story, I actually melted a cheap USB cable that was touching the exhaust ports on my 465s

Because jets are fast and it makes the PC fast when there's a jet in it.

 

@Ryan Leech you need to get your hands on a thermal cam and record some footage of a gaming session.
