Metallic looks better but it shouldn't perform any worse or better 

I found this imgur gallery of the card from Best Buy. I can't tell if its metal or plastic, but I wanted to see if you could or not. Its not really a big deal, but now its just curiosity getting the best of me.

Yes you can... use your arrow keys, or the prev/next buttons. Can you see them now? 

Oops, thought it was a single picture

 

That's the metal shroud but it seems to be a special edition as indicated in one of the pictures

Mine's the same way, cool that it turned out it is a metal shroud. Thanks for all the help!
