These cards seem to go in and out of stock daily to hourly. Maybe people are putting them in their carts and then not buying them, who knows.

Now they got this one on sale. Which is the 4L. Anyone know anything about these? Are they voltage locked? Is cooler any good?

uses a reference cooler. so the card can get loud with voltage overclocking. you should look at the 2L. sapphire model 11196-16-20G.

actually the 2L was USD 290 (270 after mail in rebate) just a few days back. so just wait for the price to fall and grab it when it does. :thumbsup:

LoL i bought 3 of the cheapest 7950s.. they were 249$ after rebates.. sold the game codes for each.. so i got them for 185$ each...

I have full cover water blocks on them "which with rebates and selling game codes paid for" they all 3 run at 1225mhz /1600mhz core and top out at 38c

Just goes to tell u in the Ref design world Name on the box = Jack and shit.

QFT! I may just get blower and replace the cooler w/water block. I just want to make sure it isn't voltage locked..
