This is the only aircooled R295x2 in existence, although its not "technically" a R295x2 and I'm not sure if it has zero-core tech that allows it to turn off one GPU/memory set entirely when idling, so you might want to double-check that (if it has it, its the most power efficient idling of any high end dual-GPU solution).

Review Cliffs Notes: Awesome card, insane bang/buck factor, but the cooler is noisy and not as good as the reference 295x2 watercooled solution. If you don't mind the less efficient cooler and have a beefy enough power supply and a very well ventilated case, the bang/buck factor is pretty crazy here.

That's a nice card. I like that it's on air instead of using a 120mm fan cooling solution that's cumbersome and too small to let the GPUs go over 75 C.

Well, the cooling is actually inferior to the watercooled version, so that parts the negative IMO.

Here's the watercooled 295x2 for comparison:

Nice card. I always liked the 4 x plug power distribution on this model over AMD's 2 x 8 PIN high amperage lines. If only it wasn't so niche and a water block was made for this guy.

I wonder how it'd do with 2 MCW82's on it or something similar. You'd need to find a way to cool the VRMs, but it might be interesting to see.

At that point there is no cost savings over the regular watercooled 295x2s though.
