    Default Visiontek Radeon 6950 2GB

    The new Visiontek Radeon 6950 is a custom card that has a smaller PCB design and runs very quiet with a new fan design. Perhaps most significantly, it also comes with an impressive price tag that is the least expensive 6950 we could find.

    Nice card from Visiontek, and a very decent price nothing wrong with a quick tweak for the fan speed to keep it cooler.

    it's the shame about the temperature, it's often when you change the reference design to improve the thermal performance. Just look at Asus and MSI cards.

    91°C it doesn't give you much headroom left for overclocking. On the other hand the card's aesthestics look much better than any previous designs.

    Ya that's the one downside but for the price I'd just manually set the fan speed around 45% and call it a day.
