Yeap... I chose the best out of my money. I got mine for RM645, but it seems Robyncom is selling is at only RM630. XFX is only RM680 from lehteck, bundled with Company of Heroes. Quite worth for the money lar... Nice looking card too

I see... You can give it a try if you want XD But reference cooler also not bad~ 49'C idle while load 60'C. MSI also got custom cooler design ma, they're selling it at the same price. How to check whether there's voltage mod?
