8500 is good

Reviewed By: statgreg on 2/12/2008

Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: After a month this card has served me well. I have played a few games on this card with great results. First...the system killer "Crysis" i have played through the whole game on medium settings no AA with no lag or hickups. Next i did COD4 again some setting on medium and some on high with great frame rate. The only game i had some trouble was Stalker. I ended up having to play at a lower resolution and lower setting and that kinda ruined the game playing quality.

Cons: None really ... it does get hot but its a fanless... a slot fan right next to it changed all that oh... and the low memory speed ...but...it not that bad of a problem

Other Thoughts: 2.4 ghz AMD - 2 GIG DDR - SATA HD

Pros: Good Price - No Fan = quiet

Cons: UT3 barely runs at lowest resolution. 3DMark05 will not even run

Other Thoughts: Decent card for everyday use. Since my card was bad I couldn't really rate it for gaming.

Very good for the money

Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year

This user purchased this item from Newegg

Pros: Inexpensive. Great for HDCP. Can play all of my video games well enough for me as a fairly casual gamer.

Cons: Card runs hot; 69 degrees Celsius when it's just sitting and up to 100 degrees in-game. Card occasionally locks up in gameplay (once every 25 hours of in-game activity or so), BUT this may be a game engine or driver issue and not the fault of the card.

Other Thoughts: This is not a card for the more serious of gamers, but for everyone else it's a great buy and I would recommend it.
