Supercharge your gaming experience with the GIGABYTE Radeon RX VEGA 56 GAMING OC 8G graphics card. It is powered by AMD RX VEGA 56 GPU with 8GB 2048-bit high bandwidth memory, delivering the horse power to drive whatever comes next. Radeon VR Ready Premium provides you with immersive, interactive and intuitive VR experiences. The state-of-the-art cooling system ensures highly-efficient heat dissipation for excellent performance even in the heat of the action. A rich set of innovative AMD technologies – like Crossfire Technology, Eyefinity Technology, Freesync Technology and HDMI 4K support, offers you more than one way to elevate your gaming experience.
The WINDFORCE 2X cooling system features two 100mm unique blade fans, alternate spinning fan design, pure copper composite heat-pipes direct touch GPU, angular fin design, semi-passive 3D active fan, and advanced copper back plate with heat-pipe, together delivering an effective heat dissipation capacity for higher performance at lower temperatures.
The pure copper heat pipes are shaped to maximize the direct contact area to the GPU for enhanced thermal transfer.
Excessive heat from GPU not only gets dissipated utilizing the massive cooling module in the front but also through the back side with a copper plate, providing a well-rounded thermal solution for the GPU. And additional heat-pipe on the back can dissipate more heat from the key components.
The airflow is spilt by the triangle fan edge, and guided smoothly through the 3D stripe curve on the fan surface, effectively enhancing the air flow by 23% over traditional fan.
The 3D Active Fan provides semi-passive cooling, the fans will remain off when the GPU is under a set loading or temperature for low power gaming. It allows gamers to enjoy gameplay in complete silence when the system is running light or idle.
The composite heat-pipes combine both thermal conductivity and phase transition for efficiently managing the transfer of heat between two solid interfaces which increases 29% of cooling capacity.
Optimize air flow by the alternate spinning fans that reduce air turbulence and effectively dissipate the heat.
The angular fins with different heights not only channel the airflow through the fins and enlarge the contact surface, but also result in a lower noise level and better cooling capacity.
With 3x DisplayPort and 3x HDMI outputs, you can arrange up to 6 monitors in any way you like, and enjoy 6 displays at the same time.
The metal back plate offers rigidity and protection to the structure, while adding a sleek, clean look to the product.
Compared to the reference card, the 12+1 power phases on the card make the MOSFET working at a lower temperature and provide more stable voltage output.
Engineered with the highest-grade chokes and capacitors, this graphic card delivers outstanding performance and durable system lifespan.

Pros: Quiet compared to my other Vega 56 & 64 cards Stable, no crashes or screen glitches.
Cons: Card does have a cheaper feel to it because the plastic and the metal backplate is thinner than my other Vega cards. But isn't really a con since it doesn't seem to impact performance that I've noticed, just a nitpick...
Overall Review: I know this card has gotten many bad reviews not only on this site but others as well. I took a chance after reading all the negativity because the sale was too goo to ignore. I have two other Vega cards (56 & 64) on other PCs - both from MSI and they have a reference style blower fan and they are both really loud when they wind up... the Vega 64 is so loud I had to move my PC under my table trying to move it further away from me cause the noise would make it difficult to hear dialog through my speakers sometimes. Comparing this Gigabyte card to my MSI Vega 56 on a different PC, this one is much quieter and I get pretty much the same results from a graphics/framerate perspective. I have a 144hz Free2sync2 HDR monitor and this runs AAA game smoothly with the highest settings at 1440 resolution (40-50 fps). My Vega 64 will get 60-70 fps in the same games. I used to overclock everything I could in the past but now a days, I'm okay with running my PC / Graphics at stock speeds; the increase in benchmarks & FPS isn't worth the headaches to me anymore... I can't say why I'm one of the lucky ones that have had a good experience with this card but I did read somewhere saying to use two separate power cables to the PSU and not a single one with a splitter at the end... Not sure if this gave it a more stable power feed or not but all I can say is I've had zero issues with this card since I got this.
