EVGA 7600GS

white Reviewed By: on 7/26/2006
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 day to 1 week
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: Easy setup, install. EVGA is a very high quality vendor. Anyone interested in more specs? From what I've got the core clock is 400mhz and mem clock is 800mhz. OH YEAH - BIG PRO IS THE LIFETIME WARRANTY.
Cons: None.
Other Thoughts: I had purchased a Leadtek 6600GT and had nothing but problems with it. RMA'd for a replacement, then 2 days after requesting the RMA this card (apparently a new item) caught my eye. So after getting my replacement 6600GT I have to send it back again. I'm not too fond of having to pay shipping again :( Also if you register this card EVGA will put you in a drawing to get the card for free (5 winners every month-they send you a check for the purchase price). Anyone looking into getting that "last card" for your AGP system-You've found it. Don't know why anyone would get a 6000 series when you can get this for just a few bucks more.

Good for older systems

Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: I bought this needing something with OpenGL 2.0 support to replace my old Quadro 750XGL and keep my aging system to last me, until I build my next Windows Vista system. I came across this and quickly ordered it. Had it Up and running for two weeks and I couldn’t be happier with new life to a P4 2.53Ghz.

•Stable and Fast
•OpenGL 2.0.1
•DirectX 9.0C

oh yea! New Egg rocks.
Cons: •Cost more then PCI-E version
•Not a 256bit memory interface
Other Thoughts: The box says minimum of a 400 Watt power supply, though I am running it on 350 Watt ok due to not exceding its load.

Great Last-Stand for AGP

white Reviewed By: apstguy on 10/30/2006
Rating + 5
Tech Level Tech Level: high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: Great card for the money, AGP, much faster memory compared to other 7600GS cards, Solid capacitors (higher quality electronic components), power splitter and s-video cable included.
Cons: Longer than my 6600GT.
Other Thoughts: Other 7600GS cards may have 512 memory, but they are running 533mhz ram - this is 800mhz. Very nice upgrade from my 6600GT. Great price point - next faster card is the 7800gs which is almost double the price. This will be my last AGP card.

Nice card for the money

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 week to 1 month
Pros: No issues. Fast card for the money. No driver issues and NVidea display software is cool.
Doesn't overheat.
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: I don't need the best card, just one that drives all my software without slowing down. Performance vs cost is very high.

Great Video Card

Tech Level Tech Level: somewhat high - Ownership: 1 month to 1 year
This user purchased this item from Newegg
Pros: For the price, this video card can't be beat. EVGA has done it again. Easily installed, just requires an extra 4 prong power plug; the same that is used on HDD's, cd drives, etc. Very quiet and very fast refresh rates. Have always purchased ATI based cards in the past. This is my first Geforce and I have no regrets.
Cons: None
Other Thoughts: For a truly great card at a less than $200 price tag.
