Thanks bro the performance is great havent even Overclocked it yet very happy with the purchase.

It cost me about $750 with shipping
well, every good price. I can see you didn't go with AMP Extreme edition, it was tri fan. of course you saved up huge cash. So How's the cooling and temperatures with dual Fan?

Yeah thought about the Amp Extreme Edition but i read online that it was 2.5 slot card as well as 13 odd inches long so i wasn't sure it would fit in my case (carbide 240) now i thank god that i didn't buy it because this card the Amp was a really tight fit in the casing the card itself fits fine its the 8pin power connectors that's the problem they stick a couple of centimeter outside the case so i kinda had to jam the card in to make the side panel close.

Also this can overclock beyond Amp Extreme clocks no no need to spend more money when you can do it yourself, custom fan curve FTW !

Cooling is great the fans don't spin at all on idle which is great no noise while browsing and stuff. While playing DOOM i was getting temps in the range of 76C-81C on Vulkan engine with Ultra Preset at 3440x1440 resolution was getting full 100FPS. Even on full load was very quite compared to my 980ti which admittedly i could heard in the background humming continuously


Will post some in game shots with Msi Afterburner stats tonight for you.

    I dont think games have looked any better since 2019 onwards and they are performing worse and worse. Game developers have really dropped the ball.

    So while Playing Control, I found a journal which said that a bathroom is missing in Islamabad Beurue of Control. With Alan Wake and Control seems to be connected worlds. Even our city is in the universe as well. No wonder those Trail 5 and Trail 6 are haunted.
    did you know you can see @NaNoW credited in the game too ? :p

    What is peoples obsession with Battle Royale genre. 6 minutes to find a match, 3 minutes to setup a match, 2 minutes to land, 10 minutes for scavanging maybe 2 3 gunfigts and its over. Multiplayer landscape is looking absolute dogshit.
    I tried playing Apex Legends once. Couldn't find a gun for 5 minutes straight. If I found a gun, I couldn't find the right ammo for it. Got killed fighting with my fists. Uninstalled it the next day.

    I usually stay away from animes. Vinland saga changed the way i look at my life, and my experiences within. I recommend every breathing human being to watch this animated masterpiece at least once fromstart to finish.
    After I watched it, I never felt like i watched a show. It was a friggin journey. I got way too attached to Thorfinn and seeing him grow up and find himself and get rid of all the negativity inside of him was just pure bliss.

    With how great cod warzone has translated onto mobile. Mainstream Consoles have lost its value even further. Maybe console gaming was associated with TVs and how TV is not the primary source of media consumption anymore, consoles will lose its 200 million core audiences even further.
