Reviews are not for everyone

Strengths: Realistic portrayal of colors, using my 560 Ti the uniforms were washed out in BBC2, when I got the Sapphire HD 6870 I could see the different colors of the camouflage, IMO it looked real.

Weakness: Card might have been a little slower but I did not notice any stuttering. It's a big card, measure your case!

I did not notice any difference in the slower FPS visually but I did see the difference in the color realism. If you like guns, bushes and uniforms to almost look real and don't mind a few FPS loss this is the card for you. (I gave the 560Ti to my nephew, he had a HD5770 so he's happy. Also card idles at 40c played B3 went to 50c, manually cranked the fan to 62%, don't know if that's good or what but did not run into any issues playing B3, MW3, BBC2. If I had a crossfire capable MB I'd be saving up for another one of these. 5 stars.
