390s? Not 390x cards and not furyX cards? What's the point? I guess if you don't have SLI 980tis it mightbe relevant but I struggle to imagine myself with less than this for 2015 gaming - I mean an extra 50% here and there wouldn't go amiss for the witcher 3 4k.

This card is an upgrade for anyone under a 290. 280x to this gpu would be a decent enough step up. Especially coming from 3gb vram for them.

Am i the only one who thinks the card is ugly as hell?

Function before aesthetics.

How loud is too loud for idle? I sit right next to my rig. And its almost inaudible with 8 fans alone with counting the 3 video cards and power supply fan.

well you can use this with audio cancelling headphones to see how's your hearing on different frequencies and then use the same method with your speakers. any difference will be purely due to ambient noise masking that particular freq. (focus on 125Hz - 1kHz) or you could just not care if you dont hear your PC :infinity:

I have great hearing. Almost as good as my eyesight. I am just not easily bothered by some fan noise or pump noise if its not loud as hell. Plus I love loud cars and metal. Thoough I dont constantly blast loud music. I dont wanna go deaf at 40.

I agree. I rather have a card that works but looks ugly than a card that looks great but doesn't perform as good. I actually like the looks of this card.
