Great Card!!

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: less than 1 day
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Amazing Card. Works Great. Instalation was simple. I absolutly love the HDMI out. Bought this card for my brother so he could watch netflix on his 50' LCD from his computer, and it's amazing quality. (With HDMI Cable)
Cons: I didn't understand how to mount the yellow video out cable through the hole in the back of the card, so I'm not using that feature,. but nonetheless, there were no instructions on how to mount it, without it just hanging out of the back of the computer.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Works pretty well under Linux when it isn't having memory problems.
Cons: As soon as the card was out of warranty it starts to cause the system to hang and video output to turn green. Only way to resolve this is to restart the X server or restart the computer. I'm fairly certain that this card has some bad video memory on it that is causing this.
Other Thoughts: Replacing with an ASUS 8400 based card.

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: good performance so far, great connectivity, easy options for getting digital sound to the HDMI output, no-fuss install and driver/app setup
Cons: definitely gets warm, will have plenty of case air circulation to avoid overheating, heat sink blocks any adjacent slot (pcie x1 in my case) so I cannot install a dual digital pcie tv tuner...will look for other tuner options.
Other Thoughts: haven't tested with 1080p output yet...jury out
