I was just wondering if the AMD GPUs really do run much hotter than the nVidia GPUs. I've seen some tests indicating that AMD's cards are louder, and I've seen people state that the AMD cards run hotter, but I've never actually seen proof of this. I don't use watercooling, but I know a lot of people do these days. Basically, I'm looking for a link that can shed some light on how hot the top end GPUs from AMD really get.
I've been planning on running Trifire, but have recently read that it is almost impossible to run Trifire effectively without watercooling (due to the 6990). I then started to wonder if dual 580s were any cooler than a Trifire setup (considering they're in the same price range)
I'd love to hear your thoughts on this.
