- Pros: Absolute best value card out there on the market. This card is cheap, and will hold you down in most games.
I was getting 16-30 fps in CRYSIS on medium settings, and 1650x1850.
The only thing that hurts it is the 128bit memory. However it is more than adequate for this mid range card.
If you are low on money, and want the most performance you can get. This is the card for you.
- Cons: Heatsink is GARBAGE on this thing. it was so hot to the touch that it would sing my finger. over 90c at times, which is just unacceptable.
Had to get a third party cooler to solve the issue. I installed a ZALMAN VF700 and all the problems were solved.
- Other Thoughts: My machine was a Intel core 2 duo alldendale 2mb cache, 2gb ddr2 memory, and a sata 2 16mb cache 320gb machine.
This graphics card carried me well over a year and i suggest you buy it if money is what your looking to save, but want to get the most performance you can possibly get.
Good Card
- Pros: Very nice card. I've had it for about 10 months now and I haven't had any problems with it.
Never had to overclock it because I'm not extremely picky with regards to playing games on max settings, but this card WILL play cod4, bioshock and a few others on max.
Crysis runs at mid settings with stock clock rate and cooling.
- Cons: Got a little choppy with Oblivion, but that could also have something to do with the fact that I hadn't overclocked my e6320 yet.
- Other Thoughts: I am upgrading to a 9800GTX, but I will definitely miss this card. Selling it for $50 bucks to a buddy of mine who needs a new card.
great buy
- Pros: great card... I have had it a while now and I have not had any problems with this card. I have had it overclocked to 720 and under a heavy load it doesn't get over 60. Frame rates are pretty good too. Runs perfect maxed out on cod4 bioshock, source games, GoW; all @ 1680x1050. Crysis at med runs well @ sam res. And gtaiv at 1280ish (uses a lot of vid mem). gonna grab another for sli when price drops
- Cons: Runs hot but that's normal for the 8 series . Still pricey for 8600
- Other Thoughts: E6750, 2x2gb gskil 4-4-4-12 800hz, xfx 680i lt, cooler master 830. Didn't buy mine directly through newegg

Introduction
The GeForce 8 series offers a complete family of graphic cards ready to meet the unique needs of demanding users. The series features a unified DirectX 10 Shader Model 4.0 & Open GL 2.0 architecture to produce stunning 3-dimensional graphics and textures. With 10-bit per channel output, the 8 series produces higher fidelity color and separation. In addition, the cards support SLI and NVIDIA's PureVideo HD.
The 8600GTS brings faster video processing at an affordable price and provides higher resolution rendering. It processes video with 32 stream processors fed by 512MB of 128-bit double-pumping GDDR3 SDRAM running at 2000MHz to deliver 2560 x 1600 resolution. The core clock runs at 675Mhz and the 400MHz RAMDAC lets you use two monitors for increased workflow, or wide-screen gaming. Both DVI are double-linked to handle the biggest monitors.
Video can be streamed via S-Video, Composite or HDTV outputs. An onboard fan aids board cooling and case airflow so you're ready to go right out of the box. Choose the NVIDIA GeForce 8600GT card to bring best-in-class graphic performance and flexible video output at a middle-of-the-road price.
