The POwercolor HD3870 is a good card performance wise, but the cooler is a noisy little beast. So unless you want to replace the cooler, don't buy this card

Looks like they went for style over performance with that cooler.

I'd RMA your GPU because its highly likely you recieved one with a dud bearing.
