The quality is top notch, be sure to try it.

I use it of course less than a month, but so far I do not regret my purchase even for such a price. No squeaks, extra noise (although maybe I'm just used to scary sounds from the computer), nothing bothers me, and the PC case no longer looks like an electric stove.

Regarding delivery: the box is of course slightly battered with scratches, wrinkled corners, but inside everything is intact. The card arrived faster than if ordered from behind a hillock, so I'm doubly pleased as an elephant. The only thing that remained a mystery to me is why there was no disk with GPU Tweak II software in the box, which comes in the box by default. In principle, he didn’t really give up on me, but the fact itself, for some reason, he didn’t turn up.

By the way, if anyone does not know, substitute something under the angle opposite from the back of the case and the motherboard, otherwise you risk losing a piece of textolite on the mother or the connector on the video card itself.

Pros

After reviewing a ton of reviews on it and its analogues, I can say that it lives up to expectations. Still a new bp and a body with normal airflow, and there will be happiness in general.

Cons

Temperature indicators. The voltage is too high. IN Cyberpunk 2077, in less crowded places on the screen, the temperature was 80 ° and above, and the power consumption was about 250v. Naturally, there is nothing good in this, only unnecessary wear of iron without any increase in performance. With a little fiddling with MSI Afterburner, the temperature dropped by about 20 degrees anywhere in the game. I didn't see the 80° mark anymore. And power consumption fell by about 100v. The difference in temperature is huge, and the performance remains the same. One note: I ran it on a 600v power supply. It works, and I didn’t notice any terrible things, but still I advise you to consider this option as temporary, before buying a new power supply for 750v and higher. And yes, the memory chips heat up around 80 °, but I haven’t planned to fix it yet, I don’t want to disassemble the card.
