^^ Show me an example of a game where PhysX actually makes a noticeable difference? I always thought all PhysX does it offload the physics part of the game to the second card, allowing the main one to focus on rendering and increase FPS. It doesn't actually change anything in the game, just how it runs. Not to mention you can use PhysX with an ATI main card and lower end Nvidia....
My room is always ~3c warmer then rest of the house, and my 4850 barely scratches 60c, I'd bet the 480 would add another degree or two if it ran at 90c and has a larger die size, which would be more noticeable.
If the 480 actually had any decent features to offer, then maybe it would be doing better. ATI has eyefinity, which is awesome. Not that I've got enough monitors, but its an option. Plus with ATI you got 3 monitors a card, opposed to Nvidia 2.
