I install Accelero Xtreme 7970 on a XFX Radeon HD7950 I would not recommend it. It is not made for the XFX model, one of the RAM chip is too close to the CPU chip I had to put a smaller cooler block on that RAM because the CPU Block gos about 2 millimeters over the RAM chip the GPU runs fine as it is but I would not recommend it and it is too big for that circuit board and it looks really weird the way it sits on it Besides the circuit board holding the cooling block alone kind of worries me if the PCI-E can keep all that weight alone but when that said i run with the Fans on 100% and i cant hear it and when im just chatting and watching movies on it its about 29 C. and when i play Diablo 3 with all on max its is about the 38 C. i haven't seen it over 40 C. yet i still need to do some more testing but as for now it sound really good

The Pros The reason this card is one of the better non-Tahiti 7870s is because of Gigabyte's custom PCB. Gigabyte took the 7870 and replaced it's memory chips with Hynix memory so they perform a...
