And great value, very affordable for its price/perfomance ratio.


Great card for the price, in its time!


A legitimate graphic card at a reasonable price.


The proceeds paid for not only the cards but my two computers!

Packaging/appearance


+my excitement to take it out was not interrupted by the packaging, was easy to open and remove the card.


Unboxing:+ very great feeling to pull this out of the secure packaging, especially when i'm upgrading from a 750ti.

Competitiveness


Super stable compared to the previous geforce card i was running.


As more demanding vr titles come out, i will probably upgrade to a gtx 1070.

    While i am very wary of buying used electronics due to past experiences i gave this one a try as it was promised to be in tiptop shape and guaranteed by amazon

    He says it makes the video so much crisper and is compatible with the newer games even though its a few years old

    Nowadays everything is overpriced and miners ruined it


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    On an h170 mobo with an i56500 and 16 gb ram with no overclocking it runs heavily modded skyrim on ultra settings on a standard 1920x1080 monitor in dsr mode at 60 fps without hiccups

    It also handles witcher 3 just fine though ironically i had to lower the settings to lessen cpu usage to reduce temperatures


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    As the msi website is a nightmare to navigate i had to find out correct cabling and setup via an internet search


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its been a little over 3 years


    Posted by a reviewer on Amazon

    Its still a really solid card to use even though there are obviously the 10 series that can provide better bang for your buck especially now with the rtx series coming out
