It was a bad idea to buy it, the money was wasted.

In general, the situation is as follows: yes, the video card looks beautiful, the black-and-red gamma in most cases will fit into any configuration. Short length and occupies two slots, this is the norm. The biggest problem is that instead of using a huge area of ​​a wide radiator to remove heat from all elements, they decided to use it only for the GPU. Memory chips and power elements are cooled by thin metal plates, which the bundled fans are not able to blow through automatically in a timely manner. As a result, after a stress test and measurement with a thermocouple, I got 88 degrees on the memory chips, and 95 degrees on the power elements. For this reason, I recommend choosing something more solid than this "brick".

Pros
  • The design, moderately compact, occupies exactly two slots. Quiet under load, and when idle, the fans stop.
Cons
  • The printed circuit board bends under the weight of the heatsink and shroud. Wide, for this reason it will not fit into some small cases. An inefficient cooling system that removes heat only from the graphics chip.
