Hehe, those two sure look similar.
I don't like the idea of having all those heatsinks connected together, sure it'll be better than the old stock heatsinks, but if you want to replace the NB heatsink you will have to replace everything...
And it's not going to support DDR3? not that future proof is it?
Hopefully this will be a good overclocker, but I don't think most of us will be upgrading motherboards til bearlake gets in the market.

I hope that heat pipe dont block the 4/8 pin connector near the mouse/keyboard on the Striker Extreme, look a bit tight

I will never buy a Nforce NB until they prove to me they can OC.

I've heard that the Nvidia 680i uses a native FSB connection, instead of a bridge chip.

The 680 SLi hasn't been tested yet in terms of overclockability, and I believe that Nvidia claims it will clock better than R600.
