Pros: - Great Cooling Idles at 32C and never reaches 80C under heavy load. - Quiet @ High RPM I've set the fans to blow at a constant 90% and they're whisper quiet. Anything above 90% I found distracting, but you won't notice it with headphones on. - Amazing 1080p Performance Massive upgrade from my 1060 3GB. Devours any game I throw at it. Maintains my monitor refresh rate (165) at high/ultra settings in most cases. Coupled with a 10700K and 32GB RAM, I was able to enjoy Star Citizen with an average of 80fps -- 60fps in cities/dense areas & 110fps in open areas/space. Note for those unfamiliar with Star Citizen: the game is in alpha stage and is actively being developed. It is nowhere near optimized, and even the best rigs do not get very high fps at every location in the game. - Pleasing Aesthetic Colors are primarily black and gunmetal. This will fit nicely in color neutral and blackout builds. RGB can be turned off to further complement it. - Unnoticeable GPU Sag Very little in terms of sag, considering its weight. What little there was could be rectified using several tiny pieces of carboard stacked together and wedged in between the GPU and where it makes contact with the case. I wouldn't recommend this method though, as the slight improvement isn't worth the potential fire hazard.

Cons: - G()d-awful Software & RGB Brightness At first glance, RGB Fusion 2.0 left a lot to be desired. It was somewhat buggy, the effect changes were delayed, and RGB was dimmer than I had hoped -- but got the job done. Past the first day, however, the software no longer worked and my preferred color was forced red with no way to change it. After hours of uninstalling, reinstalling, and more troubleshooting, I managed to fix this issue with help of numerous forums and articles. This was won in a Newegg Shuffle and was my first Gigabyte product. If I had been aware of these issues, I would not have purchased from this company.

Overall Review: TLDR GPU good. Software bad.
