Pros: Definately a nice bang for your buck... and if you have an SLI ready MOBO, two of these bad boys is pretty good (that would be 1gb mem total and the fastest core clock speed of anything similar!!!) If you play any high graphic games it'll definately make for a smooth and good looking picture... I have dual monitors running off of the one card (till I upgrade and get 2nd) and I can dual log into World Of Warcraft WITHOUT having to turn down the resolution!! Bout the best you can do without going to the 8800! IMO

Cons: Havent found any yet... everything has been absoulutely perfect!!! If I come accross any I'll try to update!

Other Thoughts: My PC:

1 ASUS M2N-SLI Deluxe AM2 NVIDIA nForce 570 SLI MCP ATX AMD Motherboard
1 Seagate ST3500631NS 500GB 7200 RPM SATA 3.0Gb/s Hard Drive
1 AMD Athlon 64 X2 6400+ Windsor 3.2GHz Socket AM2 Processor
1 G.SKILL 2GB (2 x 1GB) 240-Pin DDR2 SDRAM DDR2 800 (PC2 6400) Dual Channel Kit
1 BIOSTAR V8603TS51 GeForce 8600GTS 512MB 128-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card

That is what I started with.... ALL bought from NEWEGG at a killer price!!! The upgrades coming will only make it better!!! I'll be going for DUAL cards, RAID'ing multiple HDD's and maxing out my memory since I run XP x64... Can you imagine TWO of these??
