Battlefield 3
We know one member of our forums who will be pleased to see the Battlefield 3 graph. With the overclock comes a nicely linear improvement in performance, although the Gigabyte doesn't quite reach the heights of the PCS overclocked HD7970, or even the HIS HD7950, at stock it's capable of giving a very playable experience such is the big factory overclock.

A shame to see the blue PCB, despite seeing early pics with a black PCB... 
still considering a 7950/Kepler (after TTL reviews of course!) upgrade in the future!

I just bought this for gaming and that is its weakest site, damn
Could it be that Tom had a "bad" version or just out of luck to get a good gpu like you see with some cpu when you start to oc??

I think it's more than time the performance going down when a card is overclocked is seriously looked at.
Is it actually £500 for the 9/10 for the price score ? I have no idea on the actual.
Lovely coolers these.
If you're a Batman fan, you still save your cash and get a 560ti.. it's crazy what optimizing for one game can do.
.. and they don't like the synthetic Unigine.
pcie 2.1 ?

Windforce FTW. Unusual though that the card is slower than the ref models
