What brand 7950 are you getting?

Swap out the Zalman HSF for a CM Hyper 212 EVO and you're all good :D

I'd look at a GPU from MSI or ASUS. The XFX is decent but the cooler isn't the quietest thing in the world.

Best cooler out there from my experience, outperforms ASUS' DCII.

If you buy it now you'll get the Never Settle Reloaded bundle (Crysis 3 and Bioshock Infinite).

I got my 7950 from Ebuyer and they had codes left over from the last never Settle promotion so I got around £150 worth of games free :p
