Well I'm going to jack it after that picture... All you need is to put those sexy pieces of Silicon on water...
Finally got time this morning to remove my case, clean it out and install the new graphics cards. Everything went smoothly right up to the point of adding the SLI Bridge... hmm my bridge does not work with these cards. The aluminum fan shroud on the Zotac has a more form fitting opening around the pcb sticking out off the main board. So, running with a single 980 until I can get the Zotac one ordered.
I also reset my CPU and motherboard settings back to stock, will bring it back up with the new SLI setup when I get the SLI bridge installed and everything benchmarked to keep an eye on heat.
Before 2X GTX 680
With the 2 X 980 minus SLI Bridge
No see through panels on this case as it sits under the shelf of my desk, no need for crazy time spent cable management. I have to say these cards are damn big but these new aluminum + plastic fan shroud plus the metal back plate on these cards makes for a very sturdy structure compared to any card I have ever had. The open frame means the air and heat along with it flow out nicely. These cards are almost inaudible, amazing how quiet they are compared to even the 680's, and I thought those were pretty quiet compared to the GTX 295 I had before.
