^ that site doesn't look 100% legit..i dont know
I think I'm either going with the 570 or whenever the 6870 replacement comes..
just go with the MSI..unless you are looking at EVGA.
edit: MSI has mini-HDMI and no display port...I'll be looking for something with DP

If you don't care about noise the Msi is perfect
The Asus card runs a lot of quieter
That's what I collected before I made my choice of video card couple months back before I settled down for an Asus 6950 (same cooler different card)
But the Msi cyclone cooler is known to be loud Posted via RS Mobile | |

I have the ASUS 560Ti Direct CUII, it is very quiet! My friend has the MSI Twin Frozr, he's had to RMA his already, and the cooler is not as quiet IMO.

It's actually very quiet for a single-fan 560Ti. My case fans (120mm Antecs on High) are louder even at load. It barely fit in my P180 though.

Cheap for the card, go to Memory Express and pricematch. 
I'll be grabbing another one to go SLI with.

but yes you're correct- it's almost always best to get a more powerful single card (unless you can afford 2 top cards in tandem)

For those of you still looking for a video card: Gigabyte GTX 560Ti - 159.99 After $20 MIR (Only for today 9-16-2011).
Looks like a beefy HSF too, but at 9.5" you'd have to check your cases.  | |

Here's the TI version: Gigabyte 560 Ti
