It's a little cheaper than the Sapphire 7950s I've got now so thinking of getting a couple of these and seeing what's what...

Just figured I'd ask in case anyone's got experience with these already.

Thanks,
Mike

I looked into that card a while back. I was intrigued by the after-market style blower cooler. I think its sounds better on paper than IRL. The cooler is thicker than a standard 2-slot card, so it ends up taking 3 PCIe slots inside a case, and performs barely better than the stock one. Also, I haven't heard of people being able to get the same hashrate out of them, so IMO it's not worth it. If you're looking for more GPUs, pick up those Sapphire or Gigabyte 7950s.
