    Kind of off-topic Anand, but would it be possible to get a noise comparison between the new Radeons and the GT? Or at least give us an unscientific "not much difference" or an "X is quieter than Y, but just a little" comment. ;) If the GT is particularly annoying for some reason, then I'd rather go with the 3870 as I am (trying to) build a quiet-ish system. As it is, there aren't too many noise comparisons out there. Thanks.

    I've found the forums on silentpcreview.com to be pretty handy for that sort of thing.

    I'm sure I speak for everyone here when I say that the only reason I haven't pulled the trigger on buying a Lamborghini Reventon is because it hasn't gotten an Anandtech Editor's Choice award.

    So Lamborghini, listen up!





    ((((perhaps that will help you get your review sample :P ))))

    If I end up with a Reventon sample dinner is on me ;)

    That's almost as good as Daily Tech's Coffee-if-you-write-for-us policy :)
