At what temp to those vid cards run?  Just curious.  OC'd to 3.8 on the processor is wicked!
 
Its very similar to the build im planning, just curios to know if the cost of the liquid cooled vid cards is gonna be worth it.  Also, ive heard that the PUS above 1000 can be kinda loud, what is your take on that?
 
Thanks

I know, just wanting to see how hot/cool the air cooling is.  However hot they run, i will assume that that is the norm for these kind of cards.  In my own system they ran very hot, just really wwanting to know from someone who has one just how hot.  I know the DS staff can't tell me, but a customer can :)

You mentioned that if you wonder the cost of liquid cooling is worth it, I was basically saying he does not have it, if you want to know how triple liquid cooling is you can check out coston's thread

GPU cards run hot anyway, and each case is not the same, so if you are not getting his case, then you temps will be different.

Just some info I thought might help, lets see what temps her reports anyways, more info never hurts
