Well, I received my GTX 570 today and I love it!! it was a brand new card, just the box had a slight bit of damage, @ idle you can't hear it at all, on full load (99%) you can hear the fan but it's not an annoying whiny sound, much much quieter than the GTX560Ti (Dual fan).
. I'm thinking of buying one but not for the performance, just the ability to choose 1920x1440 rather than being stuck at 1600x1200 with ATI drivers
. Selling the card and paying about £75 to gain a bigger resolution on an old gaming CRT. It's hard to justify lol.
