Cool. Silent. Fast. Got two for SLI to replace a GTX 295. Much better performace as far as video quality goes, more advanced rendering makes some games look a lot better. Frame rate improvement is not visably noticable in the games I play, but framerates in DX9 are blazing, and should be improved in DX10 as well as making DX11 a possibility.

Green lights on the back on the PCB. Had to change my light scheme.

Fan shrouds seem not too sturdy...was afraid to put too much pressure on them. Cooling system is amazing. Furmark gets them up to 65C running full screen 2560x 1600 maxed settings (32x MSAA) for the stability test. Posted a 9861 on Furmark 1280x1024 with 0xMSAA. Haven't overclocked yet, but they are stable enough to do it.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Gigabyte RMA'd this card....

When it worked it was great.

4 months before the 3 year warranty was up the card flaked out and died on me.

Currently waiting on Gigabyte Tech's RMA process. I filed for RMA on 9/25/13. They approved it and I shipped it 9/27/13. They received the card on 10/2/13 and didn't open the box and start repairing it until 10/4/13. I called today, 10/8/13 and the guy said that it would probably be fixed later this week. So that means I have to wait another 2 weeks before it shows up on my door step. Gigabyte's RMA service is extremely SLOW.
