Great card, hard to find
Pros: Speed, Scaling,Double Life Time Warrantys
Cons: Hair Dryer Fan, Hard to Find, Can be expensive, No CUDA for folding (Green Team only)
After owning for a few months this card is still running strong for me. Ran 950/1450 stock volts, on the stock cooler with no issues. It can get loud but that was mostly for me hatting seeing 70C+. Compared to the previous 5xxx cards, this fan runs at a slightly quieter pitch. Scaling of 2 or more cards is nearly perfect. 2GB of VRAM makes everything including BF3 playable. Ability to run up to 6 monitors off one card using the DP splitters. Green team requires 2 cards for 3 monitors. On Air the card would get up to 71C when benching at 950/1450 stock volts and cooler, 100% fan (jet engine at well over 8k RPM) Under Water this card is running 1020/1500 @ 1.2v. Max temps are around...
