Works fine!!!
- Pros: Works great if you keep it cool, a little to hot for my taste, not to 105c like the other guys, for me the top was 80c degree in Crysis very high and COD4, and you have to max out to 100% the onboard fan but you can work this around with a good cooling system or fans in the case. Run smoothly on Bioshock
- Cons: Too hot, You have to max out the on-board fan 100% to play very intensive games, like Crysis, COD4, World in conflict. Expensive!!$$, Noisy over 50% fan.
- Other Thoughts: With the proper drivers, this card will give you the best ride you can imagine on a gaming rig.
Lasted for 3 minutes
- Pros: Massive card, looks impressive.
- Cons: Uses massive amounts of energy, takes 2 power connections just to function. Maybe that is why it failed after only 3 minutes of Stalker movie playing...I didn't even get to play the game. Operating temperature reached 107 deg C/226 deg F and then the 'blue screen of death'.
- Other Thoughts: Was really looking forward to using my new gaming PC...now I'll have to wait forever to get a new GPU. Make sure your power supply can handle the power requirements of this GPU.
Headaches
- Pros: Pretty picture on the card I guess. Also WHEN working, is a dream. Beautiful gaming, SmartDoctor has some nice functionality to play with fan speeds and monitor RAM and GPU temps. Also has live overclocking ability but never got around to messing with it (already ran well enough when working)...
- Cons: Ever since I got this thing, it was nothing but a hassle. Wasn't compatible with Vista 64-bit no matter what I tried. Eventually just had to switch over to XP x64 and at this point everything ran well. As previous said, would run hot with any game (max I saw was 105C). Finally blew the other day when just trying to load a program, apparently its very taxing to load the black screen to get into Crysis.
- Other Thoughts: Waiting on a new one, hopefully new one works well. Update review when comes.
