I also wouldn't run 3 or 4 cards on air, but that's another topic.
You can if you have them sitting outside in a Canadian winter, where I don't have to hear them!

Sub zero air is the poor mans water cooling, believe me, I've done it and it works great even on reference cards!
Agreed! Even @ $500 ea. they aren't bad value, but I wouldn't buy them until supply increases and they come back down to reasonable prices. Especially if I was going to buy more than one (unless I was going to mine, of course.). I also wouldn't run 3 or 4 cards on air, but that's another topic.
Is it my imagination or IS AMD pretty much pissing all over Nvidia here now and today?
In the UK Vanilla 780 is £395, 290 is £335. I know it depends on which game you play apart from it doesn't. The 290 craps all over the 780 in most games and is a lot cheaper. But I know 780 has Physx and those amazing drivers plus the promise of Gsync for only an extra £100/$150 spend on the monitor.
... overclocking changes everything and the 780 leaves the 290x in the dust, basically.
Isnt the 290 supposed to run at 1ghz if not throttling?, if so then the gigabyte 780 which is same clock, is the better performer. Though, I dont know what the price difference is in the UK.
947Mhz
Well this is good proof right here that these games aren't hitting any vram wall at ultra hd resolution with AA turned up!!! Great job for doing this!!!
