They look nearly identical, but I thought I'd ask for your input on them. (or alternatives) Anyone else can feel free to chime in. It's one of the reasons why I didn't ue the Noteboard. (other than the fact that not everyone checks theirs)
To clarify, I will only be running one card, not two in SLI. This would be an upgrade from my 8800GT 512MB. Rest of my applicable system specs are e8400 Wolfdale C2Duo @ stock 3ghz, 4GB 1066 ram.

I know you recommended a Palit version elsewhere, but these two appear to have better temps and cooling, based on feedback, etc.
