    better distribution of of work load between da 2 GPUz and No need to have CF profiles. (Unlike nVidia u need SLI profiles ;))

    GeForce GTX 480 Real World Temperatures & Sound

    Introduction


    There has been a lot of talk about the new GTX 480 and GTX 480 SLI video card configurations from NVIDIA. Certainly much of the criticism has come the power envelopes shown, and quite frankly, there is not a whole lot of misunderstanding on that front. The GF100 sucks down wattage faster than Kirstie Alley goes through her third helping of banana pancakes at IHOP. There is really no denying that, or anything subjective to discuss. Fermi is a pig. But what about the sound it makes and the temperatures it produces in actual usage scenarios? This is not going to be the same for everyone. Different chassis have different airflows and temperatures in our homes will greatly affect Fermi's heat and sound.
