Reviewed By: Wandering_Youth on 12/15/2008 Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: *It ran most of my games smoothly on max settings (1680x1050 res). Games like Rainbow Six: Vegas, Quake Wars: ET, and Left 4 Dead. *I was surprised how quiet it was while my PC is idle. It's default fan speed is set at 40% and only kicks up after hours of playing. However, when the fan speed does go up the fan it is really loud. Cons: *It's humongous! H0$y cow! This is the first time I ever bought a high end gaming graphic card and the size of this thing just amazed me. *Blows air into the case and not out to cool the graphic card. Other Thoughts: I'm just one of those people that didn't properly check to see if my PC case could fit this big boy in. I've so far only bought mid-range graphic cards which are a lot smaller compared to most high end types. I had to buy a new PC case so the card could fit in properly. MAKE SURE YOU CHECK IF YOUR PC CASE CAN FIT THIS THING IN! : P Did you find this review helpful? Two Copies of Far Cry 2 Reviewed By: Lahire149 on 12/15/2008 Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week This user purchased this item from Newegg Pros: Flawless card. Cool temps, OC headroom, max out crysis with reasonable resolutions. Came with a copy of Far Cry 2, then I registered on the manufacturer's website and got a second copy for free. How cool is that? Cons: Can't bake me a cookie. Other Thoughts: Glad I got it. Did you find this review helpful?

Small cases be warned, this card is large. Other Thoughts: Happy so far. Did you find this review helpful? Solid performer, at the right price.See less »
