The old beast, it can still handle most games easily, mid-end gaming card.


I used it as an eGPU for my laptop (so the PCIE interface is running at 4*3.0@16*3.0), it is used for 3D modelling and rendering. No overclocking or mining.


I removed the shroud because of poor heat management, and I used two fans to change the air flow (the heat wave will always warm my laptop if I use the FE cooler).


I used two fans and an adapter to customise the cooler, no extra pin required, the fan is powered by the card directly. A little bit noisy (as I use it in an open environment) but great heating management. Perfect stability as shown in pictures.


No original cooler.
