nice one! why the upgrade? i assume 2 580's are more powerful then a 680 or do you need the vram?, is that how your 680 looked or did you remove the sticker? thought the PNY came with a XLR8 sticker on it

Cable braiding is on my to do list !!Nice card but... OCD Monkey doesnt like exposed cables
Added after 2 minutes:
I upgraded mainly due to the fact I was not using the power of the 580's in SLI....and the 680 for some reason did not have a sticker on it just that stuff you get on a new phone.......which I think I actually prefer...!!! ..

Not sure if they are but whenever I see the triple slot cuII cards they always look like the pcb is bending, I had a big triple slot cooler on my 460 and now on my 560 and have never seen it droop down at all, not sure if the asus pcbs are more flexible than the msi ones or what.
Edit: Looks like the accelero I have is miles lighter than the cuII, that probably explains it.

No bend or droop whatsoever....they are not that heavy as cards go...
