Pros: This card was an open box item that i ordered. So it came without any of the extras.I knew the drivers would have to be the newest ones on the ATI site so no disc was NP. And most of the cables are ones i already have from other cards i bought. This card runs UT 2004 at all the higest resolutions with no problem! Graphics are very nice. And because it was open box i saved $$$.

Cons: This card does put out some heat. So some extra fans would be a good idea for your case. Nothing extreme if you're not over clocking it.

Overall Review: When i first hooked it up and turned it on the fan was very loud! And the card didn't work. Then i looked up the specs at AMD site and saw that "both" 6 pin connectors from power supply need to be hooked up. LOL With both in place it worked like a charm and was very quiet. I run mine to watch DVD's on the wall with a projector. So with the heat the projector puts out i hardly notice the heat the card makes :)
