Nvidia's "7" family of graphic cards offers the right solution no matter what your needs. The 7800GT is designed for the gamer who wants exceptional performance while still remaining affordable. The 7800 fully supports Microsoft's DirectX 9.0 protocols and beyond.
The built-in CineFX 4.0 Engine and UltraShadow II technology are accompanied by its support for other advanced features which let the 7800 deliver cinema-quality graphics. This card supports Scalable Link Interface (SLI), has dual DVI to maximize the display, and is OpenGL 2.0 compliant – the standard for high performance graphics. The 7800 pushes graphic data via 20 pixel pipelines courtesy of 256MB of on-board 256-bit double-pumping GDDR3 memory running at 1100MHz.
The 7800 delivers a max resolution of 2560 x 1600 and the video can be output via the onboard S-Video or HDTV connections. Its integrated dual 400MHz RAMDACs allow you to connect to connect a pair of displays to speed up your workflow – or spread out your gameplay. Its 460MHz core clock keeps things humming along – shouldering the load of video processing so your CPU doesn't have to. The onboard fan helps with airflow within the case while cooling the card.

Guy Below Me
- Pros: To add to the post before mine, i have found that using some tweaked drivers will help aid in the maxing out of the card. NVGO drivers seem to work great and make the difference between night and day on the card.
- Cons: Wish i had bought one more to use with SLI
- Other Thoughts: Personally i own the bfg version but with the tweaked drivers it seems to run great. Also having a RAID set up for tweaking it out helps. Get the 2 S@#SunG perpendicular drives in a RAID zero and smoke the raptors and your golden
Sweet card
- Pros: Awesome Speedand graphics on this one a definate upgrade from my modified 6200 OC ultra that i had, runs well with my Asrock 939Dual-Sata2 and a Very cool running card too at 54C running oblivion, Secondlife or Wow and Eq1 and Eq2.
- Cons: i dont have any cons
- Other Thoughts: I dont have any cons because i have not Run in to the problems that other folks have ran in to cause my boards compatible with it the Video card 100%, i have no ran in to any crashing problems nothing, Those that may have crashing should check their motherboard as it might not like the card, And the other Problem was the Heatsink would fall off that ive seen, Never had that happen yet with owning this card, its on there Firmly. Also when you but the Card Register it immediatly on EVGA's website so you can get benefits from the Warranty the card does have a Problem As it is a Recertified meaning that Somethign Happened to it on the Production line or it was RMA'd and then repaired back to full specs, and they usually Test it before it goes off the line again. So Register your Card specially if your paranoid about hardware like i am.

Still going....
- Pros: Bought this thing a few years back when it came out and it's still going strong. I just built a new system and transferred this card to my new case. Why upgrade yet when I can save money and use a perfectly good card? The drives were a breeze to install and it has proven itself in many glorious battles in Call of Duty. Wouldn't go to war without it...
- Cons: None that I can think of- maybe getting booted out of a game because I was running too many conflicting programs at once, but is that the card or the user's fault?
- Other Thoughts: It was the first card I ever removed and reinstalled. It has taken a real performance test as-well-as a physical beating from my rookie first time building experience and has yet to fail me.
Great Card
- Pros: Great Card. Has run almost all my games on high, Crysis on medium even. For the last 3 + years it has played everything I have thrown at it.
- Cons: None!!
- Other Thoughts: Even though this card is not being produced anymore I felt the need to write a second review 3 +years later. Had some artifacting earlier but it was a simple fix - newer drivers were needed. I am very happy with this card EVGA is a great company to buy from hence the review again
Great Card
- Pros: Great Card. great deal for the money. Runs all online apps flawlessly, can play HD content very well, and can run even the newest of games (not at full quality mind you)
- Cons: Runs kinda hot. about 33C idle, 39C on games.
- Other Thoughts: Card lasted me 3 years before i decided to upgrade. card is still working great with no problems. running on a E6700 Asus P5nsli, X-FI, 2gigs ram. can play DOOM 3 on highest resolutions great, Oblivion on really high settings, and Crysis on medium settings (frame rate can get kinda low)
