Thanks bro the performance is great havent even Overclocked it yet very happy with the purchase.

It cost me about $750 with shipping
well, every good price. I can see you didn't go with AMP Extreme edition, it was tri fan. of course you saved up huge cash. So How's the cooling and temperatures with dual Fan?

Yeah thought about the Amp Extreme Edition but i read online that it was 2.5 slot card as well as 13 odd inches long so i wasn't sure it would fit in my case (carbide 240) now i thank god that i didn't buy it because this card the Amp was a really tight fit in the casing the card itself fits fine its the 8pin power connectors that's the problem they stick a couple of centimeter outside the case so i kinda had to jam the card in to make the side panel close.

Also this can overclock beyond Amp Extreme clocks no no need to spend more money when you can do it yourself, custom fan curve FTW !

Cooling is great the fans don't spin at all on idle which is great no noise while browsing and stuff. While playing DOOM i was getting temps in the range of 76C-81C on Vulkan engine with Ultra Preset at 3440x1440 resolution was getting full 100FPS. Even on full load was very quite compared to my 980ti which admittedly i could heard in the background humming continuously


Will post some in game shots with Msi Afterburner stats tonight for you.

    if we are moving towards more and more popular trash across platforms that make billions for companies, I'm happy with all the barriers and exclusivity because at least that brings some pressure to create good stuff.

    So i just found out that f***ing s***bag Microsoft shut down Arkane Studio (makers of the brilliant Dishonored series) and Tango Gameworks (makers of the iconic The Evil Within series), among some other studios. I just want to say a giant F*** Y**! to Microsoft. THEY'VE F***ED UP BIG TIME this time.

    Started Dead Island 2, and i find it pretty lame. The story is shit. The characters are either cringe or bland (all 6 of them), The gameplay isn't fun. Even the goddamn zombies don't behave like proper zombies. They're all fast & intelligent unlike how zombies are supposed to be like. Any fan of "zombie" genre cannot possibly like this shitfest of a game. Dying Light 2 was million times better than this shit.

    tbh gaming industry as a whole is failing much like tech industry. They have buckled down too much to Corporate suites then relying on passionate and innovative people. A corporate only believes in financial growth and shareholders.
