few reviews

--------

great connectors
well-built card, well deserving of the "golden sample" title
runs very cool
eminently overclockable (780/1090 so far and counting)
hassle-free and awesome performance

--------

very nice card, best priced in top end, near 280gtx performance for much less. great drivers and the cooelr is very good. you wont be dissapointed if you get it
