At the rear side of the card we see a rather familiar PCB. Overall a fairly clean design, the cards are PCI-E gen 3.0 compatible and will have one crossfire connector, so 2-way Crossfire is an option you could pursue.

With a TDP of roughly 150 Watt the card needs to be hooked up to both a 6 PCI-E PEG power connectors. Under full stress we measured almost 150 Watts power draw, so that indeed is pretty spot on as advertised.

The cooler does a decent job by the way, even pre-overclocked the temps during gaming remains at roughly 60~65 degrees C (hottest peak temp). Theblack/ red design looks a little better as well. Under the metal casing there are aluminum fins connected to two 8mm heatpipes.
