PCI-E Graphics CArd

Ran strong for 5 years and counting!
Bought this to run in Crossfire with my first XFX Radeon HD 5770. The two worked really well together for just over a year when I built a new computer last week.As a single card it was fantastic even when I purchased it as a 'budget' card at $150 the first time. As for the brand, XFX, I've only trusted them or EVGA for their reputation. I've never had an issue with the cards myself, including during several months of overclocking their processors and memory.Even with a single one of these cards, I was able to play my flight simulators and others, including: Battlefield 3, Skyrim, Fallout, Fallout New Vegas, Digital Combat Simulator: (P51D, A10C, FC3, etc), Arma 2 and Arma 3, Company of Heroes, Sins of a Solar Empire, Starcraft 2, L4D2 and countless others.Remember, not all games support Crossfire and utilize two GPU's, so many of my games only used one, but still ran just fine. The one game that it did not run well, despite my multiple attempts to adjust settings, was IL2:Cliff's of Dover. I think this was more a fault of the developers than the card. But, just to warn others if you're looking for a card to run that game.. go better... much much better.

Works great for what I needed
I bought this as a second card in my desktop. I've had a 5770 for a while and decided to get another for another monitor when I needed it and crossfire for when I didn't need the third monitor. Its been about 4 years since I bought my first and about a year since the second. I recently played Bioshock Infinite on medium and it ran extreamly well, and with the graphics all the way up it would run great till a battle broke out. Overall its a great card that really doesn't show its age to bad.

Burning up out of the box
Worst graphics card I've bought in 15 years. Card will overheat randomly, and will cause the system to shut down. And cleaning the card does not help matters. At least there is a lifetime warranty maybe they'll give me a card that works.

Works good. Fans get noisy after a while.
Works good. After a year or so fan starts getting REALLY noisy. Took it apart and removed the buildup of the dust. Have to remove EVREY screw. Don't do it unless you have thermal paste at hand as you will be seperating the heat sink from the chip. Instead of spending on the paste I went ahead and replaced it with a low end fanless card as I no longer do heavy gaming.

Great
I bought this to install as a second card in my computer. the card is fine i just had to do a ton of work to get it to actually work with my set up. The problems i had were more the cause of my motherboard than the graphics cards...my advice: make sure the card is seated properly and you can save yourself a few hours of troubleshooting. =/
