4 out of 5 eggsgood card

Pros: Very good card. Havn't ran into any games that it couldn't run in 3 years. EVGA has exellant warrantys.

Cons: Although a great card, it went out within 6months. Not sure what the issue was but fan was still working on it and just started overheating so bad one day it would shut my whole system down. Luckily EVGA has great warranty took 5min on the phone and had new one on the way after they recieved mine. Been 2.5 years & havnt had prob after that.

5 out of 5 eggsRock solid

Pros: Performance, stability

Cons: Heat

Other Thoughts: I have been using this card since 2009. It has been rock solid the whole time. I have used it with a variety of monitors, including multiple monitor setups, and it has been able to run most games at max or very high settings. The newest example I can use is Diablo III, which it runs at max settings (at 1920 x 1080, with a second monitor also running at 1280 x 1024) with ease.

The only downside is the heat. While gaming, it can reach temps of almost 190 degrees F, which seems pretty warm to me!

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Card

Pros: Have never had any issues with it, Still runs on high settings for most games

Cons: Quite bulky, pay attention to the dimensions of this baby and make sure it'll fit in your case. I had to move my hard drives for it to fit properly, and almost every time I modify my system this card needs to come at to get at another component.

Other Thoughts: Great card, just don't put it in a small case

5 out of 5 eggsGreat Card

Pros: Still running most games at max settings 2 years after purchase.

Cons: Should have paid more attention to the bulk of the card. I purchased 2, and it was a pain to get everything connected. I dread every time I have to make modifications, it almost always means I have to move the cards no matter what I am doing.

Other Thoughts: Can't fault its performance which is excellent. I do wish I noticed the size of the card before purchase. Definitely going to be watching that in the future.

5 out of 5 eggsEVGA comes through again

Pros: Works great. Quite. Awesome lifetime warranty.
Uses 2 6 pin connectors so easy to install.

Cons: None really. Its a big card but you should know that before you buy it.

Other Thoughts: I totally recommend this card . Just the lifetime warranty is enough to at least give it a shot.

4 out of 5 eggsGood performance!

Pros: - Great performance in gaming.
- Fairly quiet, even with fans at 100%

Cons: - Can get pretty hot!
- Had to RMA the first one because a resistor was going out, started making squealing noise and artifacting on screen during light-medium load.
- Fans would not go above 60%, even at 60 degrees, without the use of a 3rd party application (Riva Tuner let me bump up to 100%).

Other Thoughts: Should of registered and signed up for the extra warranty plan when I bought it so I could of taken advantage of their features, such as them shipping you a replacement before you ship out your card, so you aren't stuck without a card for 3 weeks.

5 out of 5 eggsGreat

Pros: Powerful and fast, this GPU is one of the best for the low cost! Has taken anything ive thrown at it!

Cons: Runs HOT about 81(c) in a well cooled system. Really long card so make sure that you have a full size case.

Other Thoughts: Would buy it again... Running in SLI will dominate! NEWEGG RULES!
