yeah apparently the cooling is really effective on those . Not only 2 fans but it has 5 cooling pipes not sure what they actually do but sounds good.

 

They transfer the heat away from hotspots on the PCB to the heatsink and fans. More of them is usually a good thing, unless they're cheap ones.

Yea it's getting better, but most of the time it's more viable to buy a single card rather than buying two cards. Unless you already have one.

 

It can't improve the performance by over 100% though. That'd mean the single card wasn't being fully utilized or there were background tasks running on the single card benchmark and not the SLI/CF one.

I went ahead and ordered another 6850 this one being the XFX black edition that has higher stock clocks than the one I am running now. Newegg only carries 3 CF bridges and the XFX one was sold out. I really hope the one I bought works otherwise I'm gonna be really mad. :mad:
