Conclusion
|
This is a monster graphics card that still offers high-power performance after a few years on the market. You will, however, have to put up with a certain amount of noise, not to mention a huge power consumption. |
This is a very good mid-range card that's at ease with all video games. Note, however, that it has a misleading name: it is not a substitute for the brand's old high-end. |
