HI there


Our replacement stock of the MSI HD 7950 Boost cards have arrived, I've test a couple of these and am glad to report they do not have the 100% fan speed issue when GPU temperature goes above 58c:-

A truly incredible card, we found the cards were levelling out around 64-68c under-load which had the fans hovering around 50-55% mark which was indeed very quiet. Also manual fan control worked perfectly! :)
 
I was one of the 25 who bought the £220 ones :) but...
Playing Skyrim and WoW on highest settings after a few minutes the fans start to screech, but then after another minute get slightly quieter, but still fairly loud. Alt-Tabbing to another program causes them to almost instantly drop which is weird because I would have thought the fans would have correlated with the temperature not the load?

a bit more info.
Before installing the GPU I idled at 26-32 (CPU temp).
Now the CPU idles at 35, and the GPU at 35.
Playing games it runs about 42 - 53.
I have an i7-3770K and an Arctic Cooling i30 on a Sabertooth Z77.

That's the previous batch with the known issue, send it back to get replaced with new one.

For others it's on special and with a mega 5 game bundle. :)
 
Gibbo can I get a code for far cry 3 as well as I bought the card on Friday at £220 with 2 games ;).

Only issue for me was problems getting audio from hdmi to my amp. I would get sound watching mkvs but it would drop out every 5 secs before returning again.

Eventually got it working again the next day after removing and re installing drivers etc, a lot of messing about. I've not had a real chance to try the card with any testing games apart from fsx and so far seems ok.

I'm still a bit cautious about installing the 2 games that came with it in case a problem does develop and I have to return, I hope it doesn't.

Also is there a definitive way of identifying if the card is the new revision and not one from the old rev?

Yep also drop me a mail on Monday :)
