The product is good, there are only a few minor flaws.

I bought this video card due to the fact that the old one could not cope with two monitors with a 4K resolution.
I don’t play demanding games, so I didn’t chase performance.
Since I rarely change hardware, I ran into a problem connecting two monitors: I connected them via Display Port (of which there are three) and plugged cables into the connectors that were more convenient for me (two lower ones). And in this case, only one of the two monitors worked. When I connected only one monitor, it worked in any port of the video card. It turned out that the monitors should be connected from top to bottom, when I connected them to the first two ports, both of them worked.

Pros

The card is moderately quiet (maybe it hasn't been clogged with dust yet). I got up without any problems. With AORUS ENGINE, you can both overclock the card and change the fan speed.

Cons

To check the performance, I downloaded a test quake - at the maximum settings I had terrible brakes. But since I don't play, it doesn't matter to me.

With its pros: Quiet, warmed up to 70 degrees in stress tests, good performance, low power consumption, light. Cons below: Plastic top pad, stinted on a piece of iron.
