Just want to ask you about cooling these cards: how do you do it? Are you using water cooling or air cooling? I am getting the 2 video cards second hand (1 yr old and 4 months old) for $500.00 - I'm thinking this is a good deal. Are you still using your SLI'd 670s?
Those are some nice monitors you got going there! Did you rotate your Dell 2007FPs to make a real wide 1600 pixel tall display? If so, how did you go about it since these aren't rotating monitors?
