Pros: Price,performence,looks,512mb GDDR3,crossfire supported,256bit (hard to find a 256bit card at this price)low power useage. fast shipping! GO NEWEGG!!
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: ok, i bought this card open box 2 weeks ago for $56.00 it's amazing! i put it in my moms Dell xps 420 and it really plays games nice. (my moms xps 420 had a 2400pro in it)

i was soo amazed by the performence of this card. and how low of a psu you need to use it. i did a crysis benchmark at very high dx10 1440x900 and got avg fps of 21 and a max of 32! (i'm not kidding, this card is awesome!) don't wait any longer to buy it. JUST BUY IT!

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Fast, powerful, dependible and all around awesome. Plus it only takes one slot.
Cons: It's about as long as my motherboard. It can easily cover your SATA ports on some mother boards and block places to put your hard drives in some cases.
Other Thoughts: Rates 5.9 on the Vista-meter, though that doesn't even really mean anything, as that's still the cap.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: The Card worked Wonderful...... At first!
Cons: I thought every one complaining about the card getting to hot were your average OC guys! But I was really wrong... Sorry! The card the first week ran between 37C and 45C under load but as time went on That changed! Not to much later I noticed a warm smell comming from the case yeah your right the card! Running anyware from 70C to 80c underload! After this happening I bought a PCI slot fan to help. Still no help! Know I'm starting to get the Black Screen of death off and on!
Other Thoughts: I'm call Newegg next week to RMA it. As well as I ordered the XFX 4850 as I shoulda in the First place:)
AMD 64x2 , Gigabyte MA78GM-S2HP , 4gig ram, OS Windows XP, Corsair 750w ,500gig hard . 7 diff fans running through the case! I don't think its anything I'm doing!
