Nice card buddy, mind you i'm not too big on MSI, i'm sure that card will do nothing less then preform.
My only other MSI product has been my current motherboard. And it has served me well. I've always been a EVGA fan an not once has any of there products failed me. I did have a EVGA GTX 970 SSC in the machine and no issues what so ever. Pulling this MSI out of the box reveled a much higher quality product than I was expecting...
The MSI 970 had arguably one of the better coolers of that generation of cards, so I would the new stuff would be pretty good. Did it come with a mousepad, too?
