my friend just grabbed one of these - has received positive reviews - seems like a good deal considering current prices in oz - ships from amazon usa

When i was doing research on them before, they were quite similar. This Gigabyte one has 3 fans but are sized smaller, but the Sapphire Pulse has 2 fans but are bigger. Either way they are both great cards with good cooling. Personally it was a coin toss as to which one was cheaper first so i got the Pulse.
#1 Gigabyte Gaming OC, #2 Sapphire Pulse. According to Gamers Nexus, tbh just get the cheaper one out of the two
Both great variants at reasonable prices.

Pulse here is $637.62 + delivery but only 3 left at time of posting. I've ignored the $612 ones from dodgy looking sellers.
I ordered $612 ones from the dodgy seller and have not received the delivery yet. I need to wait another 3 days and get refund…
Saw 3 left before as well now it says in stock. Hopefully there's more then 3 now lol. Almost panic buy, might wait for Monday and see if prices will go down further.
Please change title to 8GB.
Who here would pay an extra $100 for the Powercolar Red Devil??
I opted to go for the Gigabyte for value over Powercolor and Sapphire. The main issue that comes up in other reviews I've seen is heat management, but once you adjust the fan curve it's a non issue.
Only other thing would be to consider noise, if you are a streamer or similar, than maybe Sapphire Nitro+ might be better for the quieter cooling. But if you are gaming/watching with headphones then you won't notice it.
I sit with my PC on my desk about 50cm from my head and I don't hear a thing when I'm gaming (and I have a pretty aggressive fan curve set).
Do these get the free ssd
Scorptec refurb unit is $681 and gets you a 480GB 2.5" SSD redemption:

How's this compared to the Sapphire Radeon Pulse?
