MSI's card looks like the most economical of all the designs we've reviewed today. It doesn't go overboard with cooling, yet has sufficient cooling power to beat the AMD reference and operate at a good balance between noise and temperatures. Even though it's the only dual-fan custom design in our tests, the numbers are very respectable: 73°C and 29 dBA, a small temperature increase compared to more powerful triple-fan cards with bigger heatsinks, an increase small enough you'd never notice it subjectively. Noise levels are excellent, the card is whisper quiet even with the most demanding games.
