The field has a strange way of driving people crazy.

The GTX 560 looks like a winner to me when compareing it to the GTX 450 which was a great card.I ment the GTX 460

Amd reduced the prices on HD 6870, HD 6950 1GB & HD 6950 2GB cards, as I posted here. Some of the cards are already listed at Newegg.

It just proves competition is great.

I just got a EVGA 560, not the super clocked one http://www.newegg.com/Product/Produc...82E16814130604. Last video card I bought was a Ti4600. Two things I notice with this card.

Noise: It's quiet enough at idle, but when you start a 3d game, the fan kicks up and it gets a bit loud. When I built this computer, I used a Thermalright heatpipe and very quiet fan, It runs at. ~450rpms and can almost keep the quad core below 40c under full load without speeding up. I also used very quiet case fans. So, this card really sticks out.

pausing during games: IF the game doesn't fully load the card, then it at times drops the fan speed. I'm guessing the fan is locked to the card speed and not to temp because at the same time, the game will pause for a fraction of a second. The fan always jumps back up right away, so it must be slowing down too much for the load. Doesn't have enough speed steps for smooth transition from no load to full load if it has any.

Update: found out where the fan noise was coming from. Wasn't the card, it was the UPS from the extra load. Card adds enough load to make it turn the fan on when in games. Card fan never reaches 50%.

Forget the AMD 6950 arguments. Had more fun with my PC in two days since putting these 570s than I did with three months of suffering 6870s in Crossfire.

Superior image quality at the same settings, far more customisable control panel and options, multi-GPU support that actually works more often than not and even when it doesn't you can always make use of SLI AA where as the Crossfire alternative you just disable the second card and lump it.

Don't be fooled by a seeming golden carrot. I bet a couple of the 560s in SLI work a charm.

Honestly, after owning nVidia since about 2002, I cannot honestly say there's a huge difference in IQ going from nV to ATi. Maybe side-by-side I'd see a difference. I doubt it though.
