as far as performance go this card be very good . the fan be real quiet yet keep the card nice and cool . it handle play all my game just fine . unfortunately , it suffer from terrible coil whine . it could be I just happen to get a bad one , but I do not take a chance on get another Sapphire since all 7850 be more or less equal . I return it and instead buy a PowerColor , which do not have any coil whine .
