This card is 25-35% faster on average. -The card costs $550 Anyways, performance isn't anything to write home about. I expected at least 50% faster than a GTX580 so a 25-35% increase in games, while good, is not "great" by any means. What is great is the power usage and temperatures. -----signature----- I survived to the end and got nothing out of it, but hey.

	Though nice overall. Noise level kinda worries me. Sounds like it needs better cooler. Would probably wait for non ref design if the 300-350 version is anything like that. -----signature----- http://gimpchimp.etilader.com/display.php?user=lonestarr 3500+ solo kills & Lone Enforcer WAR - IronRock Dest- Energist, Moogabooga SWTOR - KV - Energist, Moogabooga
