Hercules 9700pro what hides under the heatsinks?

I been searching for a cheap 9700 for a while ,I got a nice deal on it and took the plunge with out knowing much about this particular card/manufacturer .

How does it perform compared to original ATI 9700pro?
This is the only non modified 9700 I seen with all the heatsincks
Are they realy helpful or just a gimmick?

Did I save 26$ and got an "SE" or some thing?
 
I have it and mine is red (quite strange but beatifull). The cooling is quite nice and RAM overclocks higher than 340Mhz in mine. The Chip overclocks to 358 Mhz (not so good) and performs incredibly well (as other 9700 pros). It is one of the best looking though. Nice purchase and very silent
 
well i dont know much about your particular card, but since you don't know anything about the brand, i can reassure you that hercules is excellent. i bought from them back when they were manufacturing nVidia cards, and they put out nothing but the best in quality and OCing. now maybe that changed when they started making ATI cards, but i highly doubt it. another thing i've noticed though, is that i always hear talk about Sapphires, PowerColors, Tyan Tachyons, and OEMs, but i never hear people talk about the Hercules cards...it makes me wonder...
