I don't have the MSI version, I've got the Asus one. Let me tell you what, this card is amazing. I've run all my games on High with no problems whatsoever. I never opted for Ultra because I can accept gaming on High. Now that I've got myself a second one, I absolutely love it.

By the way, you should have went for R9 290 anyways. The difference of power bills between the two will be so little.
