Gigabyte GeForce GTX 680 Super Overclock Review

What are the biggest issue facing high powered video cards in modern computer systems?  Power, Fame??  Nay, the biggest issue is how to beat the heat and, lets face it, when you get two or more of these things in close proximity there isn't a lot of room to breathe.

During Computex Gigabyte showed me their new cooler design that appears to address these concerns from the top down.  The new cooler uses 5 smaller fans positioned across the top of the heatsink to pull air vertically thru the cooler.

The Gigabyte GeForce GTX 680 Super Overclock ( WindForce 5x) Graphic Card arrived Technic3D. Technic3D will check the GTX 680 Monster in the following Review with a Resolution from 2560x1600, 1920x1200, 1680x1050, the real Power Consumption, loudness, temperature, Overclocking and many more in new Games against other Graphic Cards.

The biggest concern would be noise.  Ts the heatsink loud? Does it use more power than your freshly overclocked toaster?  If you can read German then you might be able to find out.
