Highlights
Quality
The card overclocks very well and is very stable at 1500 core 4000 memory.
Prefect and easy to install, plus very powerful!
10/10 very good on 1080p soon upgrading to 1440p i run everything on just about max i couldn't recommend this more.
Overclocked easily to 1450mhz and even when the fans are at 100%, they are not audible in my case.
Price
This is a great card for the money.
It required an upgrade to a 1600 watt evga psu and a i7 5930 for power and pcie lane support but it was worth every penny.
Newegg has it go four hundred bucks!
Do not, i repeat, do not buy this card at this price.
Shipping
Im going to say it was the shipping company.
Packaging/appearance
I love the fact that it comes overclocked out of the box so i don't have to mess with overclocking settings.
Insane eye candy; even old school games look so pretty.
It was packaged well though the main box was a bit damaged.
Was worried at first about the size but once i got it out the box i honestly have no concerns for warping or bending the mb.
