Great Card , Performs very well , handles everything at Ultra/High. Card stays at 67 degrees celcius when gaming , although the cooling is not as quiet as the one that Asus has. (DirectCUII) The maximum temperature I managed to get it was 76 degrees , but the card ran at max for 3-4 hours. Mine arrived with a noisy fan but when playing in a headset i don't mind it.
I can highly recommend this product.

Having spent the last weekend with this card, I feel ready to offer an opinion. I consider myself a medium-core gamer, and this card replaced an MSI GTX 560ti in my very modest rig. The rough outline of my components is listed below:
-Asus Z68 motherboard -Core i5 2500k (OCed to 4.5Ghz) -4Gb of 1600Mhz RAM -An SSD and regular HD (I install games on both) -700W PSU -BenQ BL2411PT monitor (native resolution of 1920x1200)
I initially planned to wait to upgrade to a GTX 860, however, at less than £140, the price on this was too good to pass up. I was also helped into buying it by Hexus, who suggested further overclocking could get it up to par with some branded GTX 770s.
So, how does it perform? I know 3Dmark scores don’t reflect real world performance, but here they are anyway. With the old 560ti, I had a score of 3585 in Fire Strike (on the 33rd centile ). The R9 280 gave me 6308 (on the 69th centile). Copying what Hexus had done, I clocked the GPU up from 940MHz to 1085MHz and the memory to 1450MHz using Sapphires’ own overclocking utility (Trixx). This gave a Fire Strike score of 6961 (on the 78th centile ), which follows what Hexus achieved very closely. That’s an extra 10% for no extra cost! And despite not touching the power settings, the setup has been extremely stable so far. **A big note of warning** Another review site managed to cook their card by pushing the GPU to 1100Mhz, so I have avoided going any higher than 1085Mhz.
How does it perform in the real world? I can run Black Flag on ultra with MSAA at 1920x1200 at 60fps with no drops/stuttering, even when running around in the bigger towns. Far Cry 3 results in a frame rate of about 45-55 in some of the busier areas, but with no stuttering (so far).Read more ›

So far im very impressed, was delivered overnite, packaging was acceptable, but no documantation from amazon, reciept or invoice etc but thats minor.
Right the card, installed into rig booted up and run ok with standard vga driver, didnt use the drivers provided in box, due to no dvd drive in my rig(rarely use cds) so downloaded drivers directly from sapphire website, installed fine along with trixx OC utility.
performance wise i have no complaints, when consider the price, the performance is great, within Grid Autosport settings menu, on ultra settings gave an average of around 50FPS
currently playing arma 3 alot which is more cpu intensive but runs that fine on ultra also, temps wise mine currently sits around 40 idle and around 70max running for around 4hrs, fans not audible even at this temp
overall a very happy customer.

The cooler runs very cool, and I seldom hear it pass 50% fan speed during games.It performs as the benchmarks report and was great value for me when I got this for £130.
However, Amazon delayed my delivery for around 16 days. Upon complaint, they offered to negate £5 from the price, but they never did.
Pleased with the product, disappointed with Amazon and their customer service.
