GTX 570s

Which one is better,Asus GTX 570 DirectCu II or MSI 570 TwinFrozer III ?

My hand's itching to get one of them now.

Asus one is a bit chunky so make sure you have room for it. MSI is thinner and a bit sleeker looking imo. MSI also can overclock just as good if not better than the ASUS one. Also consider RMA policy and warranty when looking at either. My 570 doesn't have dual fans and can be a bit whiney so I'm going back to gigabyte windforce for my next gpu upgrade. Whisper quiet and much cooler with 3 fans

MSI all the way mate .

Cheers both, I have ordered the MSI, it will be here tomorrow. Sorry OCUK, I ordered elsewhere because I get a free Saturday delivery from another etailer.

Thanks, it's here and been playing BF3 for 2 hours now, temps 32C idle and 57C while playing. Cooler than my GTX 460.

The only complain I can make is I can't hear the fans even when using kombustor, and they are spinning at 2760rpm (53% fan speed)

at 57% use it is quite quiet indeed, crank it up to 100% though and fear the noise ! (4500rpm)
