titleWe have taken a look at HD 7770’s from both Sapphire and XFX. But that only covers a small portion of the AMD GPU market, when I was given a chance to take a look at MSI’s offering, I jumped at the chance. I know what to expect as far as performance, but what I am especially interested in is how MSI does their cards differently. MSI has a unique design that allows you to add a second fan on top of the original fan; I am really curious how this will work out. Let’s take a look.

A video card that has an adjustable heatsink that allows for three different fan configurations.

I love having options. It makes everything about your stuff more unique to you. So if I am given a stock fan I can install in different configurations then all the better. The dust removal technology is really cool as well. All, and if the extra included fan knocks off a couple more degrees even better.
