HIS H195PRF512DDN-R Radeon X1950PRO 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express x16 CrossFireX Support Video Card

Pros: Slim card that can handle a semi high loads with stock configs.

Cons: The fan just flat out broke. Something happened and a blade just broke off one night playing bf2.

Other Thoughts: ARCTIC COOLING ACCELS1 Rev 2 VGA Cooler. Amazing, I do have a full tower case with 8 case fans. The mounting was simple and this thing never gets hot. Can barely hear anything in my case now. Only when my dvd r starts up do i notice anything. I recommend this cooler highly but only if you have sufficient air flow in your case. If not a simple 90 mm can be mounted on the face very simply.

Pros: Plays anything I throw at it flawlessly. Great framerates.

Cons: Not really a con but had to upgrade PSU. My 500w A*tec SmartPower couldn't cut it.Had sys crashes,errors, BSOD etc.I put a 650 w PSU w/ multi 12V rails & haven't had any problems since. A little loud & warm.

Other Thoughts: Make sure you have enough power. Also drivers from ATI are better than HIS. I also put a Zalman VF 900 on this and now runs quiet & cool. 43C under full load.

Pros: Good Graphics card for its price, fan is not a problem at all (i do not even hear it but I had headset, when its not on i still cannot hear it) Beasts all games I throw at it.

Cons: Large card, but most likly it will fit. Will need to set your resolution but other then that its great!

Other Thoughts: Maximum FPS on CSS was 170 minimum was 55. DoD:s plays mad like no other . Half-Life beasts the competition with this card. Really a steal with the rebate :P

Pros: Great card! I have yet to see this card lack the capabilities to play any recent game. Runs cold compared to my old card.

Cons: Nothing

Other Thoughts: In the process of buying a new LCD monitor to be able to see the full extent of this card.

Pros: easy fast as hell and plays HL2 and hitman bloodmoney like therer a joke.

Cons: nada

Other Thoughts: get 2gigs of memory and a 3ghz proccesor and your set

Pros: Windows Vista gives this card a 5.9 rating for general graphics, and a 5.8 rating for gaming graphics, on a range from 1 to 5.9. I have yet to see this card really break a sweat, and I've been throwing everything at it! Some people have complained about the fan, but I barely hear it; maybe Hightech is using a higher quality fan these days, but noise is NOT a problem. Also, it DOES include a Y-adapter for power.

Cons: No cons.

Other Thoughts: It performs like a high-end card, and for a budget price (after $40 MIR)... how can you go wrong?

Pros: this card rocks, it will run flawless, and smooth, I play F.E.A.R. and it dosent skip a beat, BIOSHOCK dosent make it even flinch, seamless video, now all I have to do is buy another one to run CROSSFIRE!

Cons: nadda-zilch-none

Other Thoughts: buy the 2 to run it in crossfire, and use a big power supply and keep it cool and it will be stable and it will last!

Pros: I am very happy I bought this card. Previously i had a 7600Gt, and now all i can saw is wow. I can play S.T.A.L.K.E.R with max graphics. And under full load it reaches a max of 45 degrees C, and while I am not playing games around 30-35 degrees C.

Cons: Absolutely None.

Pros: Great engine on this card, go with the 512 DDR3 instead of the 256, it's worth it. This beast eats video editing with little effort.

Cons: None

Other Thoughts: High frame rates, no flicker, drivers from ATI better than the HIS site, use them instead.

Pros: Great card easy install, I have a full size case DEll Dimension 9100. No problems with heat or with loud fan, I do have alot of space in PC and good airflow, runs just as quiet as before with old video card having had heat sink.

Cons: NONE Card does need two power connections to power supply, My dell Dimension 9100 states its PS is 375w but I researched adn it actually does around 520w (card does need 450w PS)

Other Thoughts: Bought card to play Pirates of the Burning Sea, newegg service and shipping great. Great card for the price with rebate under $150 card will handle pretty well all new games with 512MB like Assasains Creed coming out--it is not DX10 but no games out now or this year that will use DX10--good card to hold you over for next 2 years
