I'm very pleased with it, it runs well and cool and has more vRAM than the more expensive nVidia GPUs of that generation. If i'm 10fps ahead in one game and 10fps behind in another, i don't care much about it. It does the same job overall for less money and that's good enough for me.

+1, the 48xx series have been wonderful for me, and for a relatively long time in computing terms as well.
