The first and last Gigabyte graphics card I had was a GTX560Ti.... That card was always a bit iffy.... I think I'll stick with MSI for the foreseeable future.

EVGA and MSI have always been first two choices for gpus.

^^ I have to respectfully disagree with that. My current Ventus model runs just as quiet and cool as a higher priced model for a lot less money. Plus I've been running it at a perfectly stable +140 core and +600 on the memory with no issues since I've had it.

So seeing that it only has a 128-bit bus, wonder how much the NAVI core is starved for bandwidth. I could see this card really benefiting from a decent memory OC, Polaris had a huge improvement with better memory clocks and timings that's for sure.
