Hmm...

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Can run some high end games at high frame rates. Looks nice. Adjustable fan control.

Cons: This card couldnt keep a steady frame rate while playing TF2, Prototype, or Portal. Very easy to run games but ATI is just too careless with their designing. My first and last ATI card. Nvidia is a way more steady and reliable chipset. My old geforce 9500gt ran both games way smoother and steadier than this peice of junk.

From what i've seen from videos and other people using this card. Any overclocking causes flickering on the screens. I didnt try it after seeing this. Calling shenanigans on the 300% OC.

Other Thoughts: Nvidia > ATI

Do yourself a favor and buy a GTX 275

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: 1GB DDR5 RAM. 2-DVI ports

Cons: Draws WAY too much power. Manual supplied with card has no relation to the actual EAH4890 graphics card. Nowhere does the manual say you MUST CONNECT BOTH AN 8-PIN CONNECTOR AND A 6-PIN POWER CONNECTOR TO YOUR PS.

Other Thoughts: This is an update to my earlier 1-Egg review. I ended up having to replace my 550-watt PS with an 850-watt -- the minimum you need, IMO. I almost didn't have enough connectors to power everything in my computer AND the graphics card. The only real plus is ASUS has US based tech support, so I called them when I couldn't get my computer to boot, originally. I expect more from ASUS. In the end, the performance is not what I expected. The card/drivers crash my system on a somewhat regular basis, and Photoshop CS4 seems incompatible with the card and drivers (multiple crashes). Is it AMD/ATI? Is it ASUS? I can't isolate the problems enough to fins the root of the problems.

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

Pros: Replaced my two 3870's in crossfire to free up space for my raid controller card. Also uses less power.

Cons: Only as good as my two 3870's in crossfire. Any overclocking causes flicker. None of the ASUS software works with Windows 7 64 bit. Read a lot about the problem finally gave up. 300% overclock margin? Like to see that. Best i could get was 7%.

Other Thoughts: I see the FPS dip below 20 in Crysis. Average would be around 28-32 with 1650 x 1080 all settings at max. Not running a powerhouse, but I have a phenom II X4 940 @ 3.8 with 4gb DDR2 1066.
