Pros & Cons

Pros

Cooling is supplied by one fan that is ducted to force air through their heatsink. This is likely due to it's blower design cooler. Hardware is good with no coil whining and fairly good thermal management with a blower set up.

This represents a true investment if you are a humble gamer and not a gamer that needs top performance. Played counter stricke cs-go at the highest settings possible and flawless. In pubg, the game feels much smoother as well.

Only a little damage to the box due to no extra packaging.

Competitiveness

Moved from zotac 1070 extreme and could feel change in fhd/144fps setting.

Played counter stricke cs-go at the highest settings possible and flawless.

I have recently converted this card to water cooled by use of a nzxt kraken g12 and a corsair h75, but prior to that, i never w... Read More
