Strengths: Scores 15800 points on 3dMark 06 in crossfire with Powercolor HD3850 256MB. I doesn't go above 60 degrees C under load.
Weaknesses: The double slot cooler helps cooling the GPU, but it doesn't get the hot air outside of the case. I am still waiting for the MIR from Diamond Multimedia.
Summary: I bought this card for hybrid crossfire with Powercolor HD3850 256MB on Maximus formula x38 and E6850 running at 3.6 Ghz. I am happy the frame refresh rates I get when I play COD4 at 19x12.

Strengths: Fast, Relatively quiet, Not very expensive
Weaknesses: This thing is HUGE
Summary: This is a very good card. It runs every game perfectly. The only downside is that it is very big - it could barely fit in my case. I had to move some stuff inside to make room for this monster. Overall, I am very satisfied with this card and would recommend it to anybody.
