Gigabyte R9 280X review

As I just purchased a Gigabyte R9 280x, I was wondering what you thought of it, even if you don't or have ever owned one I would just like to hear your thoughts on this card.

Not as good as the other trip fan AMD custom coolers out there..

 

Vapor-X, MSi Lighting are more my style.

 

If you're happy with it, enjoy :).

that applies to the Asus AMD cards like the 280X 

Budget? Uses? Currency? Location? Operating System? Peripherals? Monitor? Use PCPartPicker wherever possible.
