I've got a 7870 and love the design of the XFX cards. The card is great but with only 1 fan it gets a little hot. I'm getting an upgrade to a 7950 because I feel that a card with 2 fans and better performance will be better. and before anyone gives me flack for not waiting for the new AMD cards to upgrade its because I've worked out a deal to get the card for free.

The thing that "worries" me about this card, because i LOVE the looks, is all the space without aluminium fins that I can see in the picture, I hope its something related to the angle of the pic.

Lol, I'm actually planning on putting it in a friends rig that I'm building, cutting costs

I have an XFX card and it has worked great for me, no coil whine, nice low temps, and some sexy looking brushed aluminum

XFX cards usually have lifetime warranties. I wonder if this one will?

Why is like half the thread hating on XFX cards? I think they look awesome.
