I have a xfx hd 5670 and it be a really good card for the money -lrb- 90 buck -rrb- and it run every game i can throw at it . but i be get sick of turn the graphic down to play game like battlefield 3 and it still struggle with 30fp . so i buy this card . this be the bast upgrade i have do yet !!! it be really fast , powerful , quiet , and stay cool . but u do need a lot of air flow from the side of the case to keep it cool . if you want to know it score a 7.8 weus . it run at ultra graphic with v-sync off on bf3 at 1600x900 at around 60-70fp which be phenomenal !! but be get sharp lag every few seconds ... that why i knock it down to 4\/5 star . i fix it by turn the game quality to high instead of ultra . but really ... double the fp make the game sooo much easier and the first night i have it i play a few hour on bf3 and go from lvl 26 to lvl 31 !!!! it be so much easier to hold the crosshair on the target now and be just so boss . temp idle -- 37c load -- 60c -lrb- with msus afterburner profile -rrb- i highly recommend msi afterburner for any graphic card . it keep you card cooler only when u need it and can OC and make it very quiet on idle this graphic card pull a steady 60fp in bf3 on high graphic at 1600x900 with v-sync off -lrb- v-sync lower you fp to the hertz of you screen ex . 60hertz screen = 60fp max -rrb-
