. A couple problems with the 295 X2 > its is big, takes up a lot of space. Yes it has water cooling and you have these pipes going every where, i dont like it. Second the amount of heat it produces, it will produce a lot of heat. 2 processors even with the water cooler it will get hot, and yet a water cooler does use fans so keep in mind the fans are gonna spin up when the card gets hot.. third power consumption. its a powerful card, so you will need sufficient cooling> along with somewhat good Power supply. it its self has a doubled power consumption so roughly 500 watts at peek usage. At 500 watts its gonna get hot. But if those factors don't matter than go for it. Im not a nvidia fan boy but i am extremely satisfied with my 680... its low on power consumption,, great overclocking ability even with stock cooler, and at stock clocks it doesnt go above 80 C. But AMD is good, i just had bad experience with there costumer service. Good Luck!
