I had just one of these, but picked up another once I stopped being able to run modern games (Fallout 4, Planetside 2) in high/ultra mode. Now that I've got two running in crossfire my pc (2500k w/ 16gb ram) is able to keep up with modern games again, but not without issue. I wouldn't recommend this anymore unless you can get a really good deal since the card is now a couple generations old and there are occasional driver/software issues running some games (Middle Earth: Shadow of Mordor and Sid Meier's Civilization: Beyond Earth in particular) in crossfire. Safer to get a single newer card derived from this (like the 380 or 480).
This card is awesome! It's not the highest of high end but it does everything I want it to.This card handles all small environment games (game like League of Legends and Call of Duty) at 60fps like it's nothing. The only time I have to turn it down is when I play games of large environment that are not optimized like Rust, or other big environment games like ARK. The card gets pretty warm but it does a great job at cooling itself. High recommend this if you're on a budget like I was.
I do not know about other people, but I have experienced several black screens per hour with this product. Do not purchase. I have read that liquid cooling this will make it stop. Just don't buy it.
This is the best video card I have ever owned. Its not top of the line but it does what I want it to and I couldn't be happier. Now I just need to get a monitor good enough to really show it off.....
