This review is from: GIGABYTE Radeon HD 6950 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.1 x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card GV-R695OC-1GD
Pros:
* Quiet
* Runs very cool if airflow in case is good (<60C at 100% load and 60% fan speed)
* Solid build
* Among the six I bought none have had any issues
Cons:
* Extra shaders appear laser cut so even if you are able to make the BIOS writable, you won't be able to unlock the extra shaders
* Doesn't include DVI-VGA dongle. I don't need it often, but it's nice to have, so this is just them being cheap
Overall Review:
With factory overclock at 870MHz and the good cooling, this should be on your shortlist when considering a 6950.
