Alright, as always let's start off with packaging. KFA is short for Karte For Action, it's a premium brand from the guys and gals over at Galaxy. KFA2 is an actual brand all by itself targeted at the European region.
Inside the box one dazzling looking graphics card, a DVI dongle, HDMI cable (nice one) and manual plus driver CD.
Let's have a look at card. Do not underestimate how much performance this little card has under its hood. Targeted at a MSRP of roughly 350 USD it packs 1280MB of gDDR5 memory, its core frequency is clocked at 625 MHz, its shader processors at 1250 MHz and that memory at 3348 MHz (effective). As you guys know, this card is positioned directly against ATI's Radeon HD 5850.
The TDP is a little lower opposed to its big brother, a more convenient at 215 Watts. Overall, a nice grey themed looking card offering a nice powerful bite in performance. The card resembles a lot of jet-fighters. Inside we spot four heatpipes and aluminum fins. The fan it LED controller and emits blue light when active.
