Pros: MSI customer support and Newegg support for the win Comes with GPU support bracket Outstanding frame rates on 1440p
Cons: First card I received was RMAd Although uncommon, Ive had this new card crash in game 3 times (in 4 weeks)
Overall Review: The original card I received was RMAd. I was extremely appreciative of MSI for responding to my Support inquiry as quickly as they did. After explaining the symptoms, there were no additional hoops to jump through. They Simples recommended I start the RMA process. Since I was still within 30 days, I started the process with Newegg and received a replacement card in roughly 1-2 weeks. After installing the new card, I was instantly gratified to find that all the driver failures/timeout messages were a thing of the past. This card is an amazing upgrade to my 5600xt. I am knocking off 1 egg because I never had any issues with game crashes while using the 5600xt. Still, I would recommend this card.

Pros: Very fast GPU, without taking the time to overclock it and just using radeon software to Auto overclock the core is at 2750mhz and memory is at 2440mhz and basically stays there while gaming. It does run a little warm around 70-75c so I will probably set up a loop in my case. I think the "higher" temps are from the smaller cooler in this gpu. Just because if you look at most 6950xt they're 3 slots and this one is 2.5-2.7 slots. I am glad that this isn't as thick though just because I have it vertically mounted in a hyte y60 case and any bigger it would've been right up against the glass. Overall I'm very happy with this gpu. I get between 200-240 fps in warzone 2 and this gpu pretty much maxes out my 1440p 240hz monitor. Definitely a very good capable GPU
Cons: There's really not any cons other than it runs kind of warm between 70-75c
Overall Review: I definitely would recommend this gpu especially if you're a "frame chaser" like I am. Like I said before, I get between 200-240fps in warzone 2 but I do also have a 7700x but cpu doesn't play a HUGE part in wz but SAM really helps out. Definitely a big upgrade from my 3070ti

Pros: in today's market, very great bang for buck, picked this up for $799 - which is a steal. Blows away my EVGA RTX 3090 ti FTW3, which was surprising. This was benching in MW2, FH5, and synthetic FireStrike in 2K resolution.
Cons: none at all
Overall Review: can't recommend enough, for the price, it can't be beat for the performance it offers

Pros: Doesn't have the downsides of the newest gen flagship models(4090's case fit, power draw, and limited return for money spent/7090xtx thermal issues) With tweaks it can't be throttled in the slightest by 2k, and can just handle 4k.
Overall Review: Sans a durability issue, I am very satisfied with it having gotten it around 700. Its value drops considerably if the price is higher than that. Pair with a 7000 AMD or 13000 Intel chip, and ddr5 ram and it really can handle 4k, but not ray tracing.

Pros: Works does what I need it to.
Cons: Was hoping to get the new Dead Island code with it but never got them.
Overall Review: Love the card but would have loved Dead Island 2 with it.

Pros: I love this gpu run games smoothly
Cons: I got one with and insanely loud whine under gaming loads. So loud my siblings could hear it from across the hallway :( had to send it back for a new one. Tried my best to accept it as it is but just cannot deal with the whine.
Overall Review: I'm replacing mine for a new one :)

Pros: FPS!!!!!! And Picture Quality!!!!!
Cons: 3 VGA power connectors means probably upgrading power supply with this purchase.
Overall Review: Ive played games for my whole life, where i had to pick either frames or quality. Not anymore! Crazy fast GPU, playing WZ2 only ultra with 11700k and getting 144hz never had anything this fast before. I swore off AMD after the fx-6300 black edition cpu and r9 270 because of software issues. after years of nvidia I switched back because I couldn't pass up a black Friday sale at $799. So far have not regretted it now to save up and upgrade out of 1080p monitors

Pros: 144 + fps on all the games i play and doesn't get much above 70C Looks great and the rgb is nice and crisp. Very quiet, no wings needed for flying.
Cons: Latest drivers are broken so i had to downgrade to an older version.
Overall Review: This card is great simply great after i fixed my driver issues, in an earlier review i had listed and shown what had been happening with certain shaders and effects in some games, including the one im working on (they would become a mass of polygons freaking out and flickering on screen). i have been using MSI and Asus for years now and have never had a problem with either, hopefully AMD keeps their drivers in good working order in the future.

Cons: Leaving purchased packages at the door.
Overall Review: Purchase definately worth it.

Pros: Absolute powerhouse of a GPU Great for pushing raw numbers Overclocking headroom! Runs very cool Some of the best raw performance per dollar outside of specific cases
Cons: It's absolutely massive. Definitely not good with productivity vs Nvidia Requires 3 8 pin PCIe powers, which leads into.... Power rating is veeery misleading (pulling 380w in some scenarios!) No raytracing or or DLSS so certain titles which benefit from raytracing won't perform quite as well and FSR isn't quite as nice but it does still exist. It's essentially an unlocked RX 6900 XT.
Overall Review: If you don't mind the power rating being quite a bit higher than advertised, have the space in your case, your focus is gaming and don't care about DLSS and raytracing (I play almost exclusively VR games so these two things might as well not exist for me) this GPU provides some of the best performance per dollar and is definitely worth considering over the 3080ti (which as of the writing of this review, is the same exact price) and punches more on par with the 3090.
