good card, bad package

white Reviewed By: pro c on 11/19/2008

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: great piece of hardware
Cons: worst packaging i've ever seen, no adapters of any relevance, manual is for 8800 gt card not even right manual, horrible(read no) support from pny's website.
Other Thoughts: I'm not gonna claim anything about my own tech knowledge except that any person no matter how little they know, would see the short falls of this product. ironically the card its self is pretty good and a decent bargian if not for the fact that if i'd spent another 10 dollars i would have gotten the far better support of another company. first off this card came with outdated drivers, a manual for a last gen card(8800 gt), and not any of the right types of adapters, it came with a adapter to 6 pin, not in the least neccessary, and no adapter for the 8 pin power outlet, this resulted in a card that didn't work for a wopping two weeks. and cost me the difference of a better product package deal from evga or someone else. It seems silly to put out a decent card like this without standard parts to make it function. this is the second card i've bought from pny but it will sadly be the last.

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: this thing kills all of my games and renders a dvd in less than 3 minutes. L4D on full spec's runs perfect, and I do not use that term lightly.
Cons: big and hot, but what the heck any self respecting gamer should have a large case and know how change the fan speed
Other Thoughts: I bought a secondary power supply to run this (thermaltake toughpower 650W) I did this so that I could keep my old 400w and I would still have enough power so that if I wanted to add another 9800 gx2 I could just slap it in.

NICE Card - Hot

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: This card is freaking HUGE I tell you Huge... I have a P5E Motherboard and a Lian Li 1200PLUS tower.... I cannot use my highest PCI slot without routing my MB connectors which are right in the way somewhere else ... This card is actually loger than my motherboard *shocking*

Runs on the warm side 55*- 60* even at idle as to be expected from a dual GPU card. Get Riva tuner or other fan adjustment app otherwise you will be breaking 75* easily... I noticed this once i got my rivatune configured properly to display this Suggest clear air path and good fans you will need them
Cons: wish my motherboard had let me use the top most part of my case...I will tweak this more tonight... can't wait to leave work!
Other Thoughts: Even in my tower case my motherboard layout made for a tight sqweeze... but the performance I'm getting is SICK... great card I recommend it
