Pros: It's nice quality and has very good cooling. Overclocked somewhat stable to 1000MHz and ran completely stable long term at 950MHz. The memory speed did not appear to be overclockable but the manufacturer doesn't seem to have an overclocking utility so I had to use another manufacturer's program so I can't say that for sure.

Cons: This card is so slow! Even overclocked, it chokes on older games on pretty low settings. The benchmarks were pathetic. It's all due to the use of DDR3 on this card instead of GDDR5. That 800MHz memory speed is a joke.
No low profile ability, it's barely faster than a GT430, and the price isn't great. I just don't see a reason to buy this card for any use.

Other Thoughts: Either get a 430 for "just a card" in a no-onboard motherboard system or get a real 440 or a 550 for 3-10x better performance.

Pros: plays most games on high or ultra with on 1080p, cool fan, love the box

Cons: none so far

Other Thoughts: i have 8gbs of ram, 3.2 x4 cpu to make it happen
