Is the MSI radeon 7950 good value for money?

So I just saw that this 7950 is only £180 which is a great price:

However, I want to know if this model is reliable, I am cautious because it is cheaper than the xfx which has severe temperature issues. Anyway, I want to know whether it will perform worse than others, I dont want to buy a cheap, awful model, help asap would be appreciated.

Yes it's a good value for the money.

The 7950 is a great card for 1080P displays - most games I can play at the highest/ultra settings with at least 50-60FPS. I have the XFX DD and it's fine - heat wise.

Definitely. MSI makes good-quality products and if it had severe temperature problems you could just RMA it.
