This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Is exactly what I expected. I didn't expect 8800 performance. If your expectations are simply to run games at medium to moderately high settings, this is a good card for you. Was a cinch to install. slapped it in there , fired up the comp installed some drivers and gaming in 20 minutes . I am actually running it on my girlfriends comp at the moment...waiting for the rest of my components to start my first build , will be then reposessing this from her. Gave her athlon X2 3600 an extra 3000 on 3dmark. Probably couild have gotten higher with the cpu I will be using...will update post after build completes.
Cons: None. Well.....they didnt accidentally send me a 8800
Other Thoughts: good budget card. If you are a gamer and dont need bleeding edge graphics...this isn't bad at all!
