    Is 1 480 better than 3 280's?

    I'll make this quick and painless. Someone has offered me $385 for all three of my EVGA 280gtx ftw's. Should I take it and throw another $110 on top and pick up a 480 when they become available? Other than DX11, do you think I would see any improvement for my $110?
