Product Description
Manufacturer's Description
Super Alloy Power technology uses special alloy formula in critical power delivery components for a 15% performance boost, 35°C cooler operation and 2.5 times longer lifespan.Based on ASUS DirectCU architecture, which uses copper heat pipes in direct contact with the GPU to speed up heat dissipation for over 20% cooler performance, DirectCU II takes cooling further with twin 100 mm fans for 600% airflow.

This is one powerful graphics card I got 26,000P 3d mark vantage points before overclock. Post overclock (I reached an amazing 900mhz on the core @ 1.5v 35C idle 55-60c on load) I got just over 30,000P 3d mark vantage points. The picture of this item is incorrect that is a AMD 6970 not the gtx 580. It has a display port and 1.4a hmdi next to each other on the bottom row and to dvis one above another leaving on the back 1 whole pci bracket as ventilation and a half bracket (other half is the top dvi). Now the card self is so quite on auto fans but can reach about 70c on overclock full load now I use afterburner with the custom fan control and if your will to play around you can get about 10c drop for only few Db (hard to notice). On the topic of afterburner voltage control is avaliable on this card though it which handy because the asus voltage software is not as good as afterburner.
Overall cannot fault this product you can play crysis 2 (whilst over clocked) at ultra with dx11 and high textures(motion blur was disabled because presonally cannot stand it) and you will get about 30-45 fps its playable but not great. At stock you can get v sync with nice steady 60fps to work perfectly on extreme with DX 11 and high textures (motion blur still disable). Metro 2033 runs at normal with full aa and all other settings turned up (with 2 gtx 580's metro 2033 can be run on max fps around 70 but I it on leave v sync no point pushing it more than it needs).
I went got a second card for ultimate performance there is now nothing cant run at max and my pc is nice quite (thats important to me). Though the only downside is that if a game doesnt have v sync fps can get bit hight if it isnt that demanding but only found one game that effects so not big concern.
One thing to take account this is a triple slot card so takes up alot room on you MB I personally think its worth it for such great cooler with 2x100mm fans but it is a consideration. In my case I have my networking card sandwich in between 2 of these so I have no expandabilty left but I have all I wanted HYPER Graphics!
My system is:
I7 970 @ 4Ghz
12 GB ddr3 triple channel kingston hyperX black T1 @2000 mhz
ASUS Rampage extreme 3
Enermax Revolution85+ 1.25Kw PSU
Fractal Design XL

I received this today from Amazon in a box along with a few other items. It was well packaged and securely fitted inside with adequate packaging. The card itself came with an SLI bridge if you have a second GTX 580, a DVI to VGA adapter, but if you're using a VGA monitor with this card then you seriously need to think about investing in a new monitor, finally with a dual 6 pin to 8pin connector for power supply, but once again, if you have to use this, then you probably need to consider upgrading your power supply (I'd suggest about 700w min, depending on rest of system). I personally have a 850w and it works brilliantly.
The card itself is a triple expansion slot card, thanks to the colossal cooling on it. The card offers 2 full DVI slots, an HDMI port and a full Display Port. It connects through a PCIe x16 port to the motherboard but also requires 2x 8pin power connectors. The card also features 2 SLI forks for potentially quad SLI, but I don't know of many cases that have 12 expansion slots!
Performance wise, this card even though it's about a year old (Released February/march 2011) still manages to blow most other cards out the water. I have tested it against other cards such as it's predecessor the GTX 480 (reference card) and it's main competitor the AMD 6970 (also reference card). In 3DMark11 (1920x1080, NoAA, 0xAF) the GTX 480 managed 21284, the AMD 6970 averaged 22830 but the winner was the Asus GTX 580 DCUII with 23486. In games such as Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, Battlefield 3, Metro 2033 and Crysis 2, the Asus GTX 580 DCUII managed more than playable frame rates throughout most settings (although note at 2560x1600 frame rates did suffer a little in Metro 2033 and Crysis 2).
One thing I need to mention is how well this card Overclocks. Using ASUS GPU Tweak, I was able to up the core clock from 782MHz to 952MHz, Core Voltage from 1038mV to 1160mV, Memory clock from 4008MHz to 4158MHz. Under these conditions the card remains very stable and maintains a good temperature never exceeding 80c. (One thing to note is that these settings may not work for you, you may be able to push your card further, or not as much).
Overall I give this card 5* as it delivers consistent performance at very playable frame rates whilst maintaining relatively cool. One thing to note is that the fans are very quiet, however if the card is put under a load (FurMark) then if the fans reach above 45% then they can be a little noisy, however in game this hasn't occurred to date. I also give 5* to amazon for impeccable service as per usual.

This card is one of the best around at the moment.
Runs every game on high settings nice and smooth with high FPS.
One tip though! Make sure you tweak the driver settings - Use the 'Smart Fan Profile' which will increase your fan speeds in four steps, at 45C, 50C, 55C and 60C. This will keep the card nice and cool.
