I would like see a bios update bit think take its more steroid hungry smaller brother the ghl.

So it begs the question The GTX570 or the ATI 6970?

Inquiring minds want to know......

If you're going to go with two cards or more 6970, since it scales better. But for just a single card 570 all the way.

Actually what test I can find they scale about the same

Wouldn't necessarily trust them as they always seems to quote low to get the traffic through Google shopping searches then when you click check stock, they are 80% of the time out of stock.

You can also remove the price TBC

Its now on scan.co.uk for £305

Ahh fair enough.. £30 premium for the cooler which isn't bad I guess if it actually helped.

Yer the gtx 570 gainward GS-GLH is more at around £320 which leads me to think that there something else making it expensive like cherry picked cores or something.

I have one of these. It's alright, unlocking voltages can be done with the new afterburner beta.

3gb 580 version looks like a beast

I have this card and I'm fairly happy with it, 36c idle, 64c load, nice temps. The fan is nearly silent up to 50%

On 100% fan speed, it sounds like an hair dryer
