For the price, it has great performance, though the R9-285 for a handful of dollars more maybe worth considering, depending on what resolution you play at.
In the main, I'm not rating the specific performance at the price though, since that can change within weeks and you can get this card with a variety of GPUs from low to high.
I like the card because of Gigabyte's engineering and quality voltage control, requiring less use of Nvidia's recovery function - in addition to the fact that the installed triple fan cooling solution doesn't annoy me, like some other cards have.
The noise from the fans is a low woosh, without any of the whining high-frequencies that make many cards much more audible than the pure dBA measurements would have you think.
And I'm using it in a tiny case (Silverstone SG08) which is basically completely perforated for cooling and hence has no noise insulation whatsoever. For a card to be pretty quiet under load in this case is an achievement. One that happens to matter to me.
So there's 5 stars for the card's design and my recommendation to pick it with a GPU that suits your personal ratio of need-for-power vs drain-on-wallet.

This is a good gpu and it stays nice and cool, but one of the pins on the pcie connector is short and sometimes I have to re seat the gpu or else my motherboard gets angry and beeps at me.
I also have problems getting a decent amount of Oculus Rift demos to work and can not get the Vorpx drivers to work with this card(Vorpx works fine with 2 Nvidia cards I tested).

Got it to replace my aging GTX 580 that is a power hungry card. It's much faster than my 580 and i'm getting constant 60 FPS on most games like DotA 2, LoL, Transformers Rise of Dark Spark and also Tomb Raider.

Plays all my games at max ultra settings with 60fps+ with the exception of games with crazy amounts of AA like Witcher 2 and crisis 3. I get 60-100 on bf3 multiply.
