2pcs S-shape +1pcs U-shape heat pipe design provides the same cooling effect as 5pcs U-shape heat pipes, efficiently
cooling down the temp. through enlarging the cooling surface and taking away the heat efficiently.
Heat Pipe Direct Touch Technology enables heat pipes fully cover GPU, efficiently carrying away excessive heat, delivering
10% better cooling performance than traditional heat pipe solution.
92mm Ultra huge fan design provides 60% more air flow than a normal 80mm fan, efficiently dissipated heat from pipe structure fin

“PowerColor's dual fan cooler the card is a lot quieter than the AMD reference design, and runs cooler too - pretty impressive!”

“...perhaps quietest out of the three HD7950's we have tested thus far despite the PowerColor card having to deal with more heat. What more is there to say other than this is a clear example of a Platinum award winning graphics card!”
Vortex, UK
“Readers, I’m not going to beat around the bush with this one. The Powercolor HD 7950 PCS+ is overwhelmingly approved. Go get it.!”
Overclockers, USA
“PowerColor did a truly nice job with the PCS+ model. The performance level is excellent, and much like the reference model we still have a smile on our face when we look at its low power draw. If you game at 1920x1080/1200 then this is a product we can very much recommend. Good performance, good looks with a nearly inaudible product.!”

These features provide for near-silent operation in the Windows desktop and under load, the speed increased only minimally: a so quietly and yet so fast graphics card we have ever had in our test lab. Simply exemplary! The price of the graphics card actually only ten euros compared to the reference design should be, it is accessing. The reference is good, this card is better. We give it our recommendation.
Computerbase, Germany
“The real gain and focus was on cooling this card from PowerColor can score in this area. Both the temperatures and with the best values we measured in noise levels. Hardly a graphics card has been so quiet and yet so fast. The competition is PowerColor but hot on his heels - big is not the lead.”

“On the already very good 3D performance of the HD 7950 its higher clocked by 80 MHz for the PowerColor graphics card. Among the highest resolution it shows shows our benchmarks is only 9 percent behind the HD7970 and faster than GTX580”
