Is there a graph out there somewhere showing which 680 has the best cooling? Between the Windforce or the DirectCU etc..?

Thanks

If you are planning on buying the 680, don't, the GTX 770 is cheaper and is equal or superior in power, thanks to the use of the same GK104 chip. I was able to find a comparision for the ASUS Direct CUII and MSI Gaming Series TwinFrozr cooler http://www.legitreviews.com/article/2202/13/
GTX 770(s):

The 770 is a better buy than a 680 today, the only good reason I could see getting a 680 is because you already have one and want to SLI. The Asus is a very good all around card performance/cooling/noise, they balance out well. Any of the 3 above are great and you could not go wrong with any..

i own 2 gigabyte "windforce" gtx 680s and run them in a tiny case sli and never see the top card over 75c with nearly 100 percent usage. the bottom card usually stays around 65c. this is with about 50 percent fan speed.
