Wow just looked through that Guru3D review and the eVGA swept the competition in pretty much every category...and they said it runs cooler as well. Judging by the pics it looks like its among the smallest of the cards tested and they all had basically identical noise output so in short they did a fantastic job.
I'm sure it will be priced a bit higher to boot of course...how much higher will determine if its worth it but its still impressive from an engineering standpoint.
