Performance wise this graphics card doesn't really offer us anything new. The tiny overclock when compared to a standard card gives it slightly more performance.

The cooling facility is where the card really shines, there's no doubt that this is the focus for the new Phantom series. While noise levels weren't that much lower in the heat department the figures wer a lot lower.

Test Setup:

• CPU : Intel Core i7 980X EE
• CPU Cooler : Noctua NH-D14 Dual Fan
• Memory : 3x2GB Kingston HyperX PC3-160000 CL9
• Motherboard : ASRock X58 Extreme3
