If you can afford 4 5870s in CF, 3 monitors are freakin cheap.Actually, Trubritar has a couple of benchmarks on 4x5870. Go check him out on Youtube. He uses the Asus P6T7 mobo though.
Why watercooling? The 5870 Vapor-X will never pass 70 degrees Celsius even under load and isn't that loud. And it doesn't cost a fortune and isn't a pain in the ass to set up and maintain, like a water cooling loop. And you get to keep your warranty.
Yeah, the 3 PCIe x16 slots in a row is quite dumb. So is the rear I/O design on the 5870. But it wouldn't be possible otherwise to use the Eyefinity technology. But who can afford 3 Eyefinity monitors anyways? And even so, your frame rates will suck.
I bet these guys are looking @the Eyefinity Six version for 6 monitors.
