    5870 CrossFire and save yourself a lot of headache... what a nightmare it would be trying to keep that machine cool. The coolers on those things block everything on the motherboard off....seems like a great plan.

    3x 6-pin PCI-E plugs? The clocks better be through the roof and cruising at 37,000ft to justify that....

    If you can afford that board with 4x 285s i think it should be possible to get some proper cooling for those cards

    why does it need that much juice?

    however, after i've read the rumor about bad gt300 yields these ULTRA PIMP OMFG editions actually make sense. i mean there were oc'ed cards in the past as well, but with asus mars and now these cards i just can't get rid of the thought they do this to fill a gap until gt300 gets released (which might be bigger than we think, if these rumors about bad yields really hold water...).

    give us the 5870 and gtx380 damnit!
