I have 2 x Nvidia GFX 285 in sli.
Thinking of getting 2 x Nvidia GFX 480 in sli...

But have read about the heat and noise, can anyone tell me what levels i should get...I now have a HAF X case, so that should help.

Or should i what abit to see what comes out in the next few months.

Thx

two 480s in SLI will generate a lot of heat...lots

What resolution are you playing at? Really a single 480 would suffice in most games unless you're playing over 3 or more monitors

Unless you game at 2560x1600 or similar.

HAF X is an excellent case for aircooling, cant beat up to 4 of those massive fans! Was made to deal with hot Fermi cards.
 
I game on a dell 24inch screen at 1920 x 1200...had sli for last 5 years.
Hence going for 2 again...

Anyone know what temps I would get...

Will be running on a OCZ 1KW Psu or an Enermax 850Watt PSU
