Why on earth did they leave the shroud at full length like that? It looks so unfinished

 

[Greenback]

Have to agree with xnax, having that in your case with the shroud just jutting out makes it look like a bodge job

I mean.. I guess the backplate is nice. That's all I'll say on it.

It wouldn't look so bad if the plastic did not look like that really nasty tacky cheap stuff that they use on junk items. It looks like some one took a Dremel and ground down all the edges the finish is that bad ! The back plate is really nice (hate to admit that) but then they go and completely ruin that too by putting their bloody stickers all over it. Ones that you won't be allowed to remove unless you want to lose their warranty.

Why couldn't they have just stuck them on the PCB first?

I agree with all of the above, it looks so unfinished imo.

Nope troo dat. What's funny dude is if they bothered to spend like one day reading people's reactions to their products on a forum such as this they could boost their sales exponentially.

Irriots.

It just seems like they just don't care and i'm not just pointing the finger at XFX i'm talking about all of them doesn't matter if they make nvidia or amd cards or even both.

They just can't be F to look at forums and they think they know better than us some times that maybe true but more times than not it's the other away around.

There was a huge article in Custom PC a couple of years back about how these companies do not go off in search of what users actually think about their products. They have an arrogance where they just think that people will want their products, whilst being completely out of touch as to what people really want.

And then when they fail they actually wonder why they have failed.

MSI seem to think it's time to cover everything in carbon. They're only about six or seven years too late. Oh and dragons. Lots of dragons everywhere.

Yes MSI takes the cake but IMO i think ASUS & Gigabyte is catching up to MSI :lol:

With some of there recent designs.
