Rated 5 out of 5 stars
Was hesitant, but its amazing!
2070 Super was on the fritz and wanted an affordable 50xx card. Researching it I found out while its the lowest model of MSI cards, its one of the few 5070s that stays really cool and and quiet. And unlike other 5070s, you don't need a 750w PSU, works with a 650w psu.
Been using it two weeks now. Stays cooler then me 2070 ever did. A bit bigger, but way lighter. Came with Borderlands 4, which runs amazing. Just make sure you use TWO cords connecting from your PSU to the card, not one which is daisy chained from one cord. Card wont work/
Don't bother with 5080 or higher cards. They seem to have some issues, especially with Borderlands 4. And the power requirement is way higher.
