Comment:
I know some people have unlocked there HD 6950s to 6970, DO NOT do this with this card, it only has 1 BIOS compared to others that have a dual BIOS setup.

GIGABYTE Radeon HD 6950 GV-R695OC-1GD Video Card
Cons:-1gb compared to 2gb, but from everything I've read its not a huge difference in terms or performance.-Very long card, longest video card I've worked with ever. Had to remove my HDD cage so it would fit.

Pros:-Very, very fast-Out of the box 70mhz overclock-3 fans and a giant heatsink, besides water cooling you can't ask for anything better-Maxes everything I throw at it-For what you get price point is very reasonable.

One word: Wow. This card is amazing. Like brand new games, 1080 with all graphical options turned on still getting 40-60fps easy. It is a little loud when its at 100% fan speed, but that doesn't seem to be too often, during normal gaming I can't hear it at all over the regular sounds. Would recommend this card to a friend in a heartbeat.

GIGABYTE Radeon HD 6950 GV-R695OC-1GD Video Card
Cons:-No dual Bios, so flashing to 6970 would be risky... really regret not getting a reference design.

Pros:-Awesome heatsink-Awesome stock overclock-Good Price-Great Performance-3 Cooling fans-Looks Cool
Comment:
This thing runs very well. Playing PC games in 1080p at full gfx options is a totally new experience to me. It actually made some games I got bored of much more entertaining to play. It is performing at 100% to achieve this though. I wish it had the dual bios switch so as to ensure bios flashing safety. Due to missing this, id have to give it a 4 and recommend a 6950 that can be safely flashed to a 6970. If it weren't for that it would be a 5.
