MSI is better.

Nope, not in this case. The Twin Frozr used here is the older and lesser version with very poor cooling for the VRMs and quite the loud fans. I should also mention that 2 of the RAM sections actually have NO cooling and will overheat (IIRC) causing crashes/artifacting. I'd go with Power Color in thise case as their customer support as well as cooler are better in this case.

You would think Ubisoft would support the Bulldozer based architectures more given their digging themed names like bulldozer, Piledriver, Steamroller and Excavator.

Both of the Saphire cards on Amazon are not Internationally shipped, so Saphire isn't a option.
