Pros: Everything. I switched from a HD4890, and I couldn't be happier. I play my games in 1920x1200, 4x - 8x AA, and the lowest frame-rates I ever encounter are during Crysis, at 40fps...oh the suffering;)
Cons: The fan is set at 40% by default, which is way too conservative for my setup. I downloaded EVGA precision tool and set it at 80% instead. I did have freezes and artifacting at 40%, but it's all gone now at 80%. Runs like a champ, and begs for more.
Other Thoughts: Get this card. Up next, an X58 motherboard, and two more cards (triple SLI baby!!!), and I'll be a happy camper.

The Most Expensive But Worth It

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: At $400, by far the most pricey video card I've ever bought. But worth the investment after doing careful research. The package includes an HDMI audio cable which is kewl if you want to run HD audio. Get 2 of these for an SLI speed demon, and you're sitting pretty in high FPS. Runs lower than 50 C with fan speeds set at 50 %. Not bad given the GPU speed of the card.
Cons: Barely fits into my server case, unless I remove SATA cables first.

This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Very fast, fairly quiet, reasonably priced. Runs icy cool once you get it set up right. Overall I'm very pleased with this card.
Cons: Fan speed issue. Tried various driver sets but the fan speed was constantly locked at 40%. Temps would go well into the 80's and games would artifact and lock up within minutes. Found a solution for this but still had to ding it one egg for the frustration.
Other Thoughts: Used EVGA's Precision Tuner to lock the fan speed at 80% full time. Card is only moderately louder now, and it's barely noticable over my case fans. Played Crysis at max settings for a couple hours using this fix and the card never went over 62 degrees.
