I purchased this card to replace my aging SLI GTX 460s (1GB).
The first thing you'll notice is this card is HUGE. I have a full size Coolmaster HAF-X case and had to do a bit of reconfiguration just to get it to fit.
This is also much, much quieter than the cards it replaced; even at full load i don't hear it over my case fans. With the old 460s it was, at times, a struggle to hear the speakers!
With an ambient temperature of around 25c in my room, the card hits 70c after a few hours playtime.
As for performance it's easily maxing out everything I've throw at it so-far. (Witcher 2, BF3, Max Payne 3).
A HIGHLY recomended video card!

For me this card was an upgrade and a way of future - proofing my gaming rig and work station from a asus gtx 760 DirectCU II OC 2GB.
In a year or so these cards will be quite a bit lower in price and will make a perfect dual sli matching with the original - so when the time comes for more gpu power, slot another 770 in and you have a more than capable set up of playing all the modern games on ultra at solid fps.
Currently on its own this card is (in my view) in a world of it's own. It has a killer benchmark rating being the fourth fastest card with the opportunity for immense overclocking. Despite this it is vastly cheaper than the top three.
The Build quality feels great, it's a weighty piece of kit with the full metal shrouding and the huge copper heat duct pipes.
The performance is as expected - with just a tiny overclock (I really haven't pushed this card far yet at all) it exceeds what I expected of it and has not shown any weakness in terms of fps nor rendering quality.
The cooling is brilliant - windforce 3x lives up to the hype with these super powerful fans and the unique venting design. At 80 - 100% fan power this thing does make quite a racket but it's a noise I can easily live with - in fact I quite enjoy hearing the cooling power these things deliver. Consistent temperatures around the 40 degree mark at next to full load on intensive games is what I have experienced so far.
Size wise this card is on the large size, but it fit snugly in my coolermaster k350 case with a bit of cable management.
Overall a fantastic card offering gargantuan performance at a brilliant price. My hat is off to gigabyte.

Really impressed with this card.Cooling is fantastic, idle the fan is only on 17% 35c in a hot room in summer max the fans ever go to is 40% 58c with the card fully maxed during benchmarks/stress tests.The card remains completely silent no matter what you throw at it.There was a very slight coil whine when hitting over 150 FPS when i first got it but it seems to have disappeared now, and was hardly noticeable.Im a real silent nut when it comes to my PC, no need what so ever for a noisy gaming PC in today's market.
I did overclock the card to see what i could get out of it, and it can be pushed a lot, but i run it stock as it performs great.With power limit on 111% got it to +250 core clock and +500 memory no hassle.Left the fan on auto and it still remained silent with a max temp of 66c 55% fan speed during stress test.
Performance has been great, Crysis 3 has been the only thing to give it a real work out @45FPS maxed out 1080p.BF4 stays well above 100 FPS on ultra, as does most other games.Great card that stays cool n quiet with huge overclocking potential.

Great card. I've been using it for a couple of weeks now and so far it's run everything I've thrown at it at max settings. In more demanding games like Far Cry 3, Hitman Absolution, Max Payne 3, etc, however, I've had to turn down antialiasing to maintain a steady smooth FPS, between 40 and 60. But that's something I can live with. Games still look as good as they can with this card. It's very quiet in idle, but can be kind of loud under load. That's not too much of a problem if you don't keep your PC next to you or if you're not recording while gaming, also if you wear headphones. When playing less demanding games like Team Fortress 2, it's still relatively quiet. It's also a pretty big card, so make sure you've got the room for it first. It generally shouldn't be a problem, though.

Great card, runs bf4 a treat. I did wonder if I should of gone for the 4gb version, on 1080p, it really isn't needed. Great performance for the price :)

Well, I bought this card for my first PC build. One thing you'll notice is that the card is very large, at almost 30cm. Some cases won't be able to hold a card that big, and can be a pain to fit in. The card has 3 fans, which do make quite a bit of noise when under load, which is okay but I would've expected a little bit better, since the cooling is good but not as good as you'd think. Also I had a few uncertain noises, such as a slight grinding and even coil whine on some games. The power of the card is pretty much a standard 770's power, which is good but nothing really special for the size of the card. Basically, the card is nothing special for it's size, or the 3 fans. I later got an EVGA version of this card, superclocked with ACX cooling. The card has been working a treat so far with no odd noises. The EVGA card is about 4cm smaller which can be quite substantial in certain cases, and stays nice and cool even though it only has two large fans, and stays reasonably quiet, quieter than this, and runs as cool as this. Since the card is superclocked you can get some great power, and yet it still stays cool and quiet enough. Only thing is, it's £20 more than this, but if you're gonna be spending a lot of money on a graphics card, make sure it's worth it and get the best possible.
