Glad you like them, I would too if the price wasn't so much above a standard card's price, $100 is my max. I invested a little over $1000 on my doublewide DD case and best pumps, hoses, rads, fittings money could buy so having a non-water cooled GPU depresses me :( my 2nd loop is just WCing my MB now.
 
I have 2x480 FTW HC on ebay that won't sell I'll basically have to almost give them away. I'm sure I waited too long but they aren't even worth the price of the waterblock they are attached to now. I mentioned it in another thread but I think the way I kept those 480 FTW HC for so long was counter productive financially and performance wise. Sticking to the 2nd tier cards and selling / upgrading every 6-12 months is what I'm going to try and see how that works. I get to game for about an hour a week now and I don't even have any kids.....
 
How are you liking the X99 & 5820K? I am planning to make the shift from X58 but waiting on the Samsung SM951 which appears to be delayed I have a contact at Samsung says the part isn't even listed yet internally. That's the M.2 PCIe 3.0 x4 @ 1600/1000 read/write, if I'm going to have to reload OS I'm going to have that as my primary drive NVMe. My other 3 SSD Mushkin Chronos Deluxes will just be a Raid0 for various other software. It seems maybe by the time SM951 is released Broadwell chip will be ready but seems like few months into 2015. Single U3014 for me @ 2560x1600 running fine with my 1x970 FTW high asic and overclocks insane 10 extra FPS on the OC.

Gutcheck... Did I miss the pictures?

Pictures?.......There were Pictures?

It's a hint.. Someone is missing pictures... I keep looking... Ehhhmmmmm *Gutcheck.. * lol!

I played WTNO on three surround swifts for two hours, temps never went over 38 degrees.... boost was running both cards at 1442 MHZ.  They are just amazing.  I love them.  They give me a good 30% stock over the 780's.  They ran at 1080 MHZ or so, and different chips etc.

Let me put them together properly.  I want to get a mount to put a 30 on top..... WHICH REMINDS ME!!
 
For the first time in history I was able to setup a 7860 x (whatever it is now 2440, formerly 1600) surround display and 2 additional 30 inch screens all refreshing as they should.  The surround is at 144Hz the 30's at 60.  That alone was worth the upgrade.

Very Nice!
 
But wait, they dont come with the EVGA compression fittings like the GTX780 HCs?

Sadly (to me), those are much sexier than the Alphacool WC blocks on my 970 FTWs.
Gratz on them!

Those look nice! I'm not a fan of the blue and white but they look good for sure.

Congrats on the upgrade. Those clocks and temps are great!
