I bought 3 of these to try help my pc pick up the signal a bit better, well it kinda worked, adding them to the wifi adapter on my pc didnt have much affect, so i swapped them to the router itself and now the signals are much stronger with a slightly improved range.

Works great so far, time will tell.
So far it is working very well, i bought this to replace a cheaper unit which was causing issues, this has no such issues and happily powers a PC using upto 12A, a monitor using about 2A, and a couple of other accessories totaling about 16-18A all together, the unit holds up well and barely gets warm, load voltage at 18A was 11.85V, powered by a pair of 12v 60Ah SLA cells in series for 24v, 24V input is optimal but it runs fine from about 16v up to 40v, though above 36 it does get a bit toasty on high loads.

Amazing card, runs cool and is very fast!
I purchased my asus GTX 770 as an upgrade to a GTX 660Ti,
I can simply say that anyone upgrading from a 660Ti or lower card will see about a 25%-30% performance increase or greater! It's an amazing card!
Whats more is it runs almost silent (not noticeable at all until the fan hits about 75-80% - which is rare anyway).
My only slight dislike is the fan noise at 100% is a little displeasing, and my 660Ti although louder, has a much more 'pleasant' fan noise. But hey, who would run it at 100% fan all the time when it doesnt even get hot on auto!
I am purchasing a EK770-DC2 waterblock for this, so it will run even cooler and perhaps run faster! (let the games begin!)
I recommend if you are purchasing a second hand card, is to remove the cooler, clean all dust off, and replace the thermal paste with NT-H1 or MX4.
If you insulate the tiny capacitors around the chip you could even use Coolaboratory Liquid Pro/Ultra for even higher cooling capacity.
