OverviewCustomer ReviewSpecificationsProduct Tour
Get your game on for less with XFX's GeForce 8600GT-based video card. It can handle Vista and your hottest game at highest settings with 256MB of GDDR3 memory and a core clock speed of 540MHz. When the gaming gets tough, just pop in another card and game on with twice the power!

As more games support DX10 you are going to need a card that can handle it. This GPU is designed to run DX10 with full Shader Model 4.0 support. When you add in Quantum Effects and Lumenex technology you’ll see stunning images at ultra-fast frame rates all done on the GPU. This leaves the CPU free to handle the game engine and AI.

The two dual link DVI ports can handle resolutions up to 2560x1600, letting you drive the largest monitors. The nView multi display technology makes it easy to spread your work out over two monitors. Use the primary for the main working area and the secondary for sub-screens including tools and chat windows.

PHWOAR!!!

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: I got this card to replace an Asus EN7600GS Silent that crapped out after only a few months. I was expecting only a minor upgrade in terms of graphics quality, especially since the 7600 was a 512MB card. I was blown away by how much better this card makes my games look over the 7600. The card fan is also nearly silent and doesn't significantly add to system noise.
Cons: None as yet.
Other Thoughts: My old card did not have a fan, in an effort to make it more quiet. I learned the hard way that fanless video boards are only for cases with exceptionally good airflow or liquid cooling.

Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: install is easy. Didn't bother with the disc. No problems with latest drivers. Can't hear it running over the case fans.
Idles at 52c/58c full load in this sweltering room.
Cons: The adapter for DVI to VGA adapter was stubborn.
Other Thoughts: runs everything on max at 1024X768 well over 100fps according to FRAPS. Gaming is so much more fun now that the screen isn't thrashing around like it did with my pci card and I can see detail I never knew existed.

Good card, but fan noise is LOUD

white Reviewed By: on 10/31/2008
Rating + 3
Tech Level Tech Level: average - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
Pros: Huge improvement over my 7600gt. Which is expected. Games ran smoothly at high setting whereas the old card coould only run them at medium setting.
Cons: Noise. The old Asus card was silent. The card is the loudest thing in my computer. CPU is liquid cooled, hard drive has a fan running but is dead silent.

Not sure why the fan is so loud. The noise alone kinda defeats the purpose of an "upgrade".

Good Card For Price

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: less than 1 day
Pros: Over clocked
No 6pin connector required
My old Zalman fits it
Came with free game
Price
Cons: Fan Noise but resolved with the Zalman
Removing fan voids warrany
Other Thoughts: This card is a lot faster then the 7600GT, Despite what others say and I had my 7600GT over-clocked pretty high.
Anyways it died when my Zalman fan got stuck on a power connector and stopped spinning.
I noticed my screen would have lines every once in a while, then I finally figured out it was the fan, the card died shortly after. Haha!
This card is great for small cases with weak power supplies since it doesn't require the 6pin power.
My dell optiplex gx620 has a 260watt ps.
Manufacturer Response:With XFX you can replace the fan WITHOUT affecting your warranty (just keep the original hardware in case an RMA is ever needed) and the same goes for overclocking as well! :)
