Nice card like the x670 and x680 equivalents. I would like to see a good review on all three cards (this one included) as there is only one review on the x680 model.

Well it's certainly a very attractive card and in the right lighting I think it just might Sparkle.

Yeah, that'd be nice. Also, I'd like to see real world testing in terms of running cooler over reference WITH sound levels being measured because it's easy to run cooler with louder fans that are rotating faster, being cooler with equal or less noise is the difficult part.

It is a nice looking card, yes. The game world of tanks is fun, but the name is terrible. Same thing here. At least it gives me a laugh every time I see it. Kinda shallow to say think though.

As far as the 670 and 680 go, they use the same cooler as Gainward, so you can get temp benchmarks pretty easily. As far as the sound goes, they're on the noisier end of things (acoustically, you're probably better off with Asus, IceQ, Gigabyte or Powercolor).

I'd definitely like to know the stats on this cooler in particular, though. I have a thing for smaller-name brands and a 660 or 660ti may well be in my future.

Only the EVGA FTW GTX 660 has a higher boost clock than this.

I'm just glad they got rid of the purple.

I'm just glad they got rid of the purple.

I only wish they'd gone with something other than black. Everything's becoming black. Everything the same. Total uniformity. It's so boring.

I want the market to trend away from black while I keep my black. I like black.

Sparkle is just the name of the company. When you buy them out you can change the name to james888 which would probably be much, much better.

What a silly name! I demand it to my I-james888 ROG Vengence x660 SOC

This is a good looking no nonsense card.
If I was in the market for a card i would consider one of these.
