A Closer Look
Immediately, we can see this is a pretty serious looking card. The cooler design is massive and extends quite a bit beyond the main PCB thanks to its extended shroud design. This means we have room for three high-performance fans which come with weird looking double-blade fins to help drive even more airflow through the card.
The metal shroud has a nice design to it and is sculpted to form a weird six-point star-like shape around the middle fan. Of course, being one of their Red Devil series cards, it features an aggressive black and red theme, which is pretty standard for gaming hardware, but it still looks great.
Connectivity is good, with 2 x DP, 2 x HDMI, and a DVI port on the back, so multiple displays or different display types are easily accommodated.
The card is powered by a single 8-pin PCI cable, which is certainly more than enough for the chipset this card uses. This power runs through their improved Gold PowerKIT components, which are more durable and of a higher quality than the stock card, allowing for better overclocks and voltages to be applied.
This card is big and heavy, so you’ll be happy to know it has a nicely designed metal backplate giving it added strength, while also offering some extra cooling for the PCB.
