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

“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.!”
Guru3D, Netherlands
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.

“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.”
Hardwareluxx, Germany
“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”
