I ordered through NC-X a just over a month ago. Tried overclocking, but with a voltage lock, I wasn't able to push it to where I needed it to go.

This is a great video card to own, it runs cool and using gigabytes OC guru software I have easily created my own fan curve to have it run around 65 degrees max while maintaining around 60% fan speed. As a result this video card has been way quieter than any stock solution from AMD or nvidia that I have tried in the past and runs cooler as well.

I understand why Gigabyte is locking the maximum voltage of the card but I really wish I had more control in reducing the voltage required. At the moment the voltage can be reduced if the GPU is underclocked at certain speeds and the voltage decreases are few and far between. (Read More)

Great card overall. Just a heads up, the older reviews (early-mid 2012) had the unlocked versions of these cards, Gigabyte now locks them (late 2012?.)

Other than that.. it runs great. No problems whatsoever. Can still squeeze out a little OC but nothing much, still it is insanely fast. I wish I had known it was locked before, but it's not NCIX's fault! (Read More)

I am happy with this card besides the fact Gigabyte have went ahead an voltage locked all their cards. I would recommend this card to people who don't plan to overclock. If you want to overclock stay far away. All the reviews say this card oc great but that's not the case with the new revisions. (Read More)
