I'm tempted to get one, but i'm a green fan Though looking at the reviews my god this is a nice card. I'm waiting to see what the GTX590 is like

I hope you have a good set of noise cancelling headphones according to the reviews.

I was planning on getting 2 of these and Water Cooling them anyway. Sound issue gone.....but the power draw would be too much for my wallet.

Not sure what to do now...might just keep my 5970 and possibly get another.
