  1. Wow thats a great product, surprised how well it handles.

  2. What is their warranty support like though? Powercolor had a terrible coverage plan in the UK.

  3. I dont think it looks that bad. anyway who looks at a video card anyway, once its installed, its out of sight, right?

  4. Wow im buying this, ive waited for a while now for a good 7970 with quality cooler. none in stock yet, another week before its available 🙁 damn you kitguru for getting my hopes up.

  5. Well some difference there is… as i checked warranty times from one shop for some 7970 cards. MSI, ASUS, Gigabyte offering 3 years on the ones i checked. XFX 2 years and this one has 1 year. I bought this one anyway.
