It says a lot for how capable this card is that it matches the GTX 980 in the very testing Fire Strike benchmarks. We can feel the words "pocket rocket" appearing on our fingertips.

OK can you please now strap an AIO to it and see if it's temp bound?

QuoteXFX is the only company who put a back plate on where all of the other companies did a bone head move buy not putting one on.
Also the ASUS, Gigabyte & MSI are a complete rip off in pricing on this card too they are charging an extra $40-$50 more compare to the XFX card.Quote

and here AMD just made an "8800GT 512MB" move on Nvidia .... ;-)Quote
I was expecting quite a bit little lower temperatures, and lower power draw as well, but the performance is only slightly lower than I expected which is not bad. It's the price and availability that is going to give AMD the lead here, I reckon.
I read a Crossfire 480 review... it's bad. Either drivers seriously need work—which is a given, obviously—or this is the state of multi-GPU setups now.Quote
