My first thought when seeing the display outputs was would i need anything extra to run eyefinity with my 3 DVI monitors, this i think is a great move that should have been done with the 58xx and 69xx cards but better late than never.

I love the cooler design and full slot vent but i am very curious about the change of the acoustics of the fan as with a vapor chamber heatsink and higher than normal fan speeds my 6970 runs relatively cool but the sound is right on the edge of annoying yet a slight change in volume or frequency may make it a lot more comfortable.

I hope the improved acoustics will be covered in the TPU review and explain if it is just a reduction in noise level or if there is any change in frequency.
