I ordered a Gigabyte 7950 the other day. I thought it wasn't going to fit my case when I opened it.

Stout, how has the performance been?

I have seen benchmarks with the new 299 660Ti outperforming it on certain games.

None the less, nice card man!

So far so good. My frame rates have jumped up and stay more consistent than my 560ti. I haven't had time to pop in a high graphic game like BF3 yet because I have been playing DayZ. Plan on doing that this weekend though.

My MOBO didn't support SLI which I was going to do with the 560ti. Instead of changing the MOBO and getting a second 560ti I just got a higher end card. My MOBO does support crossfire so I could just totally over kill it and get a second 7950

I have read up on the 660ti and it looks great but I want the option to crossfire or SLI in the future and I can't with my MOBO. That's why I rolled with the 7950.
