GIGABYTE introduces the latest exclusive "Triangle Cool" Technology to reach a better cooling performance. The latest patent pending technology combines fin with clip module in a special triangle shape. With the original anti-turbulence structure plus the new triangle cooling design, it enhances the efficiency of heat dissipation dramatically by minimizing the flow of turbulence between fans. Therefore, the "Triangle Cool" Technology provides a more efficient air flow for the cooling system.

Ultra Durable VGA board provides dramatic cooling effect on lowering both GPU and memory temperature by doubling the copper inner layer of PCB. GIGABYTE Ultra Durable VGA can lower GPU temperature by 5% to 10%.

Ultra Durable VGA board reduces voltage ripples in normal and transient state, thus effectively lowers noises and ensures higher overclocking capability. GIGABYTE Ultra Durable VGA graphic accelerators improve overclocking capability by 10% to 30%.

Ultra Durable VGA board allows more bandwidth for electron passage and reduces circuit impedance. The less circuit impedance, the more stable flow of current and can effectively improve power efficiency. GIGABYTE Ultra Durable VGA can lower power switching loss by 10% to 30%.

Features:-
- PCI-E 3.0 Ready: Delivers double the bandwidth per lane of PCIe GEN2 for faster GPU- CPU
- Hugely overclockable
- Vastly cooler running than previous generation
- Quieter running than previous generation
- Compute Power: 3.5 TFLOPS
- Core Clock Speed: 1100MHz
- Primitive Rate: 2 prim / clk
- Shader Architecture: GCN
- Stream Processors: 32 CU / 2048 ALU
- Texture Units: 128

Awesome very quiet cards guys at really good prices, especially with the FREE games!! :)
 
Great deals for Gigabyte cards. They have the best cooling of any card I've owned. I'm going back to them next upgrade.
 
Not directing this at OcUK...but ever since the AMD's new "free" game bundles promotion, the prices of the cards gone up by £15-£25 everywhere...

Great cooling but they will most likely be voltage locked.

Won't a simple BIOS flash fix this though? Not that this should be necessary of course!

Out of the 7970's I would definitely go for the none Ghz edition given it's the same card just running a different BIOS. Not only that but the "Boost" BIOS sucks frankly, I wish I had got a none Ghz / Boost edition card all along so I didn't have to deal with the annoying over kill voltage spikes.

Depends on the bios version.

7950 I have is locked at hardware level. :(

Very easy answer, pricing in USD has risen slightly due to memory price increases. Then since the game promotion exchange rates have also weakened, both combined give the increase you are seeing. But pricing at AMD level on GPU's is un-changed.

Everything has gone up, look at CPU's, memory, prices rocketed and its why it is everywhere as weakening exchange rates and memory price increases effect everyone.

Prices have gone up but when speccing a full build the other day I couldn't help notice a difference of £80-100 lower with one of your competitors, none of the items were on special with them either and some of them were on OCUK :/

It's a good thing I value your service as I'll be ordering a full build from you later today :)
