Does anyone own a gtx 580? If so how is it working for you? I know the reviews all say good things but nothings better than average people's computers (rather than the super performance test rigs). What kind of problems should i expect and need to overcome( like heat, certain chipseets and things that dont quite mesh together well). Im buying this mostly for gaming so i dont have to replace it for a long while and can avoid SLI, im teetering between this and a 470 OR 460 (sonic platinum or EVGA FTW).

Thanks for your time. :)

Not sure about the HDMI, but for your resolution, every single card there is a complete overkill. If you don't want to upgrade for a couple years, every single card there is more than capable of maxing out any games. Sure, you could drop 500 for a 580 and never have to worry for years to come. What I would do if you really don't like upgrading often is pick up the Gigaybyte 470 Super Overclock Series. That thing will last you for at least 5+ on that resolution. [:jaydeejohn:8]
