Stumbled across this today as I was putting together a cheap gaming build for my friend.

10% off promo code: UPGRADEVGA (extended to 4/7/14!)
Also has a $30 rebate

One of the best GPU's you can get brand new for a little over $100 - dual fan design to boot!

got one of these in the last deal... my first powercolor card, seems solid and is fast for it's type... lots of blather about the fan, but no trouble for me...

Yeah got 1 from MSI back in nov.. MSI stiffed me on my $30 rebate though. Their rebate center said I hadn't contacted them in time and case was closed. I was like "why would I contact you sooner if it says allow 10 weeks for processing!" Anyway might want to get a tracking because they said they never received mine, and call em early. $30 is a lot.

Yep, I got one too. It was the single fan aka the cheapest model they make? I am actually surprised by how well the card runs, overclocks, and still stays cool and silent even though it only has 1 fan. I also received the rebate check promptly. But I kind of wish I had the OP one instead because the only major con of the single fan card is no fan control and also because it will not let me control the fan speed on the other cards in the system!

I also filed an MSI rebate back in Nov or December. Granted, it took them forever, but my $30 card arrived.

Would this be a good upgrade from a 5770? Been thinking about getting a new card for my stepson.

Its a massive step up from a 5770, I'd say in the twice as fast range if not more depending on the games.

Also keep in mind it will draw more power so check the PSU first.
