Nice card

Wow, I can't believe the difference this thing (along with the rest of my upgrades) makes. I came from something like a 7400. This thing is a lot quiter than I expected, and the price is ridiculous. They may as well give them away.

It's huge. No problem fitting in my case or anything, but I'm 99% sure I wouldn't be able to get anything into the slot below this card. Oh well, I don't need to get anything in there anyway.

I think I used the word "anything" too many times.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Not like the picture

Runs at 49ºC in open air without any fans blowing on it at 35% fan speed idling.

The fan that came on mine is literally half the size of the one in the picture, so it's annoyingly loud and makes a high-pitched noise as it spins even at the lowest speed I can set it to. It's in my HTPC that I occasionally play games on, so when I'm not playing games I'd at least expect it to be quiet.

I like BFG for their good tech support and all, but I feel like I've been cheated.
