Both cards sound awful and it seems nvidia havent invented any new technology this time round. The G80 architecture is not very refined at all and the way they seem to have bolted two cores onto one adapter is extremely ugly and somewhat similar to what 3DFX where forced to do with their voodoo technology. I will most certainly wait to see what ATI are offering and I am sure it will a more refined product. Being forced to install watercooling inside a system is not a good marketing strategy and God knows what kind of power these cards are going to need!

If this is all nVidia can come up with no wonder the PS3 has had so many problems prior to launch. The thing must need a hell of a lot of cooling.

Yeah i most certainly agree, remember those 57** cards, with which you needed insane cooling, ATI beat the shit out of em back then, maybe it'll happen again
