What product are you looking to buy? I have an XFX R9270X, my first GPU, and my First XFX product. But I can't say much not having much experience with other cards, but it is cool....well as cool a 2 year old AMD card can be.

When it comes to Radeon graphics cards at least, I've only ever heard that they're one of the best.

Solve your own audio issues  |  First Steps with RPi 3  |  Humidity & Condensation  |  Sleep & Hibernation  |  Overclocking RAM  |  Making Backups  |  Displays  |  4K / 8K / 16K / etc.  |  Do I need 80+ Platinum?

If you can read this you're using the wrong theme.  You can change it at the bottom.

In 2009 I bought a XFX 9800GTX+. Had no problems with it. I used it for about five years and now it just sits on my self collecting dust, it prob still works

I'm using a XFX card right now. Basically all their products are good except for those XT PSUs. In general when it comes to GPUs it's hard to go wrong. The only cards that seem a bit cheap are the Powercolor cards this gen as they have low spec VRMs but for normal use (no hardcore overclocking) they would still do fine.

Their AMD cards are pretty good, and some of their PSUs are very good/excellent. As always, it's not about the company, it's about the product at talk. My XFX PSU died after a year but that was really bad luck. I still recommended the same one to a friend who bought it. 

What exact item do you have at mind?

The ability to google properly is a skill of its own.

Absolutely. Their GPU build quality is pretty good, customer service is at least decent, and their Power Supplies are all good expect for the super entry-level XT series.

 

But thanks to them you con find great power supplies for next to nothing in many countries.

And even the XT series isn't the disaster that the VS from corsair or the TR2 from Thermaltake are.

We have a NEW and GLORIOUSER-ER-ER PSU Tier List Now. (dammit @LukeSavenije stop coming up with new ones)

You can check out the old one that gave joy to so many across the land here

My first graphics card was an XFX 9500GT and it worked great. Still have it but no longer in use.

 

My current graphics card is an XFX RX480 and haven't had any issues with it so far.

What I find disappointing is the length of the card. For a single fan card it surely has some length to it which in this case I don't like. It's by no means a bad card, it's pretty decent. Iirc XFX uses their chips (someone correct me if I'm wrong) for their cards and they can OC pretty good (considering they're AMD cards), which could put it close to RX480 4GB. With it being a single fan card shouldn't be an issue. Perhaps a bit louder but no throttling. Considering it's $30 less than dual fan edition no reason not to go with it. 
I personally wouldn't but that's because I don't like single fan cards for no apparent reason. :ph34r:

XFX is sort of the EVGA of the AMD world. Great products, great customer support, but you don't pay the "EVGA tax" that you do on some NVIDIA cards and PSUs.

Aerocool DS are the best fans you've never tried.
