Apparently that leaked cooler was fake. I'm glad because that thing was ugly AF.

Didn't the guy say he put that cooler on to avoid NDA? Pretty sure he stated that wasn't the actual cooler.

Wait, seems to be different thing, never-mind.

No, that guy used an MSI lightning cooler. Did you not see the supposed Sapphire cheese grate cooler?

Oh god praise the lord! I'm actually looking at the Sapphire version, as I'm considering Crossfiring 480s if they live up to the expectations. But if it's gonna be ugly, I'll just go MSI.

No, I've been busy with suffering with D&D withdrawals.

That doesn't look that bad to me.

My problem with it is the color scheme. It doesn't fit with any build.

Phew, still have faith in Sapphire. If they can make a cooler that resembles the R9 390 Toxic for the big Vega cards, I'll be a happy man.

 

Or better yet, the Atomic series if they ever decide to bring it back.

I did a long time ago. No-one I knew knew how to play so I just stopped playing. And I lost my DDO account with my Level 7 cleric

Lol. Never played the MMO. Mine have been from stream cancellations and session rescheduling.
