Decent model is decent.

First review by HWCanucks.
It's hot as fuck, let me tell ya.
No way should anyone use it without proper cooling.
#24
those temps are almost exclusively with the boosted clock. at the base 800 Mhz i think (hope!) it will do a little bit better.
#25
Still, it's the fastest single-gpu red card.
With something like this, it'll rock!
#26
we'll do some serious experimentation with ours when we get them, but my hope is that they can be passively cooled.
#27
Notice how the price turned out to be better than expected: recommended $549 per GPU.
It seriously beats GTX Titan in int perf / $ category.
#28
yeah, we'll see what newegg sets the price at. they just raised the price on all their 7970s by $40-$80 overnight, so...
#29
It's around £440 in UK.

GPU speed estimation for single md5 (Mhs) ? 10k Mhs possible ?
