1.) I got the card for £150 shipped right on release.
2.) The reviews showed it ahead of what NV is currently offering at that price.
3.) Noise is not an issue at all, in fact it makes less noise than my 4850. Heat seems to also be a zero issue as my case temps are just fine. As for power, the review above puts it in the range of a 4850 and is less than other similarly priced cards.
4.) Eyefinity. I have 3 displays so I wanted so I wanted the ability to output to 3 monitors from one card when I get the desk space.
5.) Throw in the noise levels, availability, regular driver updates etc. It was an easy choice.
A bit late since the card was out a month and a bit ago, but it's good to see value increasing in the mid-range all the time.
