Great value & performance

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Great frame rates, even with game settings maxed out. Stable in both XP and W7. Also pleased with cost / value - easily outperforms other cards in the $120 price range (adjusted purchase price after rebate). XFX LIFETIME warranty! 450W minimum power supply requirement is actually LESS than most other 4870 cards which require 500W+.

Did I mention lifetime XFX warranty? Oh, yeah!
Cons: Card is long so ensure there is enough room in your case! Would prefer it directed exhaust out the back of the case instead of inside. Power hungry...duh, its a gaming card.
Other Thoughts: Hot? Not really. It runs 10-15°C hotter than the previous 7600GT that it replaced, however it idles at 55° and peaks around 60°. Don't really consider this to be a problem though! Would encourage other that own this card to seriously review case cooling setup and ambient room temperature if temperature issues are observed. I'm using the Rosewill R5601-BK case which comes stock with two 120mm cooling fans (one front and one rear) - no additional cooling added! It runs in our basement which stay 63-73°F year round, regardless of heating or AC.
