I have never liked cards with fans that just blow the heat all up in your case like that. Yea, they work great on a test bed sitting out in the open but most people don't run their card on an open air test bed.

Incorrect, in fact a good ventilated chassis often shaves off a couple of degrees as it creates proper airflow.


I usually have the opposite effect unless i'm water cooling. Then I'll use a standard case.

Looks good, though I like the design on my 680s lightnings more.


Agreed. My 680 Lightning is the nicest looking piece of hardware I ever bought.

If we rotate the card and look at the backside we can see two SLI connectors, so in theory four cards in quad-SLI GPU mode are supported. But from what we learned, 3-way SLI is the maximum mode supported by NVIDIA. Now worries though as quad SLI is difficult and often a maze of driver problems, Nvidia has never really recommended and actively supported quad-SLI. We really recommend to go with a maximum of 2 maybe three cards anyway.



HUH? Is this meant for only the 7 series or 780's or all quad sli in general. Never have i herd this before. I know scaling and drivers get goofy at 3 and over. But im confused. Maybe iv just skimmed to many video card reviews and never read this before. Thought quad sli was always supported.
