A Monster Unleashed
I bought this to upgrade from my Nvidia 1050Ti Superclocked card and I have been blown away by it.Firstly, its massive! It's a dual width card and very girthy, which means you'll have to undo all the power cables in order to install it in the PCI-e Express slot, so set aside a good 20 mins just for the physical installation, especially if you have a smaller case.As for the driver installation, it's so straightforward and the manual is brilliant! Just go to MSI.com and search for this card and download from there. You don't even need the CD!In terms of performance, this card is a monster. I logged onto Ark:Survival Evolved and was getting 140+ fps based on my old settings from the NVidia. I can push all settings to maximum and the card has performance to spare.It really is a monster capable of maxing out settings on some of the most demanding games on the market right now, and the picture quality is unbelievable.It's capable of turning good looking games into world class experiences, with no drag or drops in performance.Keep in mind though that this comes at a price in terms of power and will need a good 200w to run if you have the afterburner installed. With this in mind, make sure you have 8 pin and 6 pin PCI-e cables available in your PSU.This is the best high-end gaming card you can get without paying double the price and is currently in the top 10 best GPUs on the market according to Tom's Hardware.

Radeon strikes back!
Excellent gaming performer and the radeons image quality is amazing.1440p gaming is flawless super smooth at ultra details on pretty much any game,Some games playable at 4k sea of thieves 4k 45fps but 1440p 2k is the sweet spotHighly recommended graphics cardWelcome back Radeon!

What more could you want?
Easy to install, just stick in slot, hook it up to the psu and BOOM!I have tried out a few games on Ultra/max settings and receive the following fps:Assassins creed odyssey - 60+fps on averageGTA 5 - 90-105doom - 144you get the drift.The card can run quite hot, around 80C (although its built to run up to around 90 degrees comfortably), but seems to be because the fans are set to around 40% max, I upped that to 60-65% and now it sits around 64C.Havent tried the VR functionality but I wouldnt have any worries about it coping.All in all, it'll run anything you want, might even run your kids to school without any dramas. Price to performance is top drawer!

Unreliable and then it died after 4 months.
Strange artifacts started showing up when switching into games but nothing major to start with. Then suddenly after 4 months it would die soon after starting any game with Graphic Card Specific errors. Updating drivers had no effect and after much trouble shooting it was obvious that the card itself was defective.There are know driver issues with AMD having physical quality issues as well means I cannot recommend this card at all.I have had Nvidia cards that have lasted up to 10 years without fault and that is what I shall be going back to.

A shame about the reliability with constant crashing.
This graphics card on the specs promised a lot but in use let down with regular crashing and blank screens.I think AMD released the 5700 series gfx cards too soon as I believe that as well as drivers their are deeper problems within the electronics inside the card.I tried this card inside 2 pcs before returning it both pcs had corsair power supplies.One pc built around a Ryzen 3rd generation processor the other with an Intel processor.

So far so good able to record up to 1440p at 60fps. But yeah graphics quality is on point. Not too loud either.

Great for pretty much any game you throw at it
This was the first AMD card I've bought in a while so I didn't know what to expect.I was relieved to find it's pretty much exceeded all my expectations.I've not had a single issue setting all my games to full settings, with the highest anti-aliasing etc.Although I am gaming at 1080P I believe it could probably run games at even higher resolutions as I get around 90-120 FPS in most games with the framerate unlocked.Just to give you an idea I've tested Forza Horizon 4, Gears of War 4, PUBG, CS:GO and a lot more.The latest drivers seem to keep the card running cool and although occasionally the card does rev the fan a bit I rarely hear it.

Drivers are not fit for purpose
Not much to like hardware may have been good but drivers to actually use the card are not fit for purpose spent 2 days trying to install the driver's it completely destroyed windows 10 had to completely reinstall windows 10 three times google problems with this card I am not alone returned card bought geforce HTC 1660 ti card 15mins up and running no problems would not have given any stars if I could
