Great Card

GIGABYTE Super Overclock Series GeForce GTX 680 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card GV-N680SO-2GD
GIGABYTE Super Overclock Series GeForce GTX 680 2GB GDDR5 PCI Express 3.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card GV-N680SO-2GD

Pros: Have not found anything it can't handle yet. Fans run quiet no whine at all plus no heat issues. The card is heavy and takes up 3 slots but it's stiff enough not to sag or bend.

Cons: None! It's big but it's powerful.

Overall Review: This card rocks no complaints what so ever. Just use 3 screws to mount to the frame and you won't have any problems.

DOA

MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti - 448 Cores (Fermi) 1280MB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card N560GTX-Ti 448 Twin Frozr III PE/OC
MSI GeForce GTX 560 Ti - 448 Cores (Fermi) 1280MB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Video Card N560GTX-Ti 448 Twin Frozr III PE/OC

Pros: none

Cons: Worked for 4 days then the one card went and 2 days latter second card went.

Overall Review: Called MSI and they told me i must have gotten a bad batch of cards. Way to go MSI great quality control Newegg customer service was great in helping me with my returns lets hope the next 2 cards are not from the same broken batch.

WAS good

Pros: Was great for the time I had it worked really well. A bit noisy but i like to know things are working so I liked the noise. Knew exactly when the pump went out just because of the noise.

Cons: Finally crapped out after 2 years almost to the week. Would buy another one but after the pump went and no way to fix I think I'll go to another product.

Overall Review: Not sure if i had to get another mounting bracket to fit my board but I might have.

Not Looking Good

Pros: Allot of different features, good if you need to plug allot of stuff into.

Cons: hasn't worked longer than a week and i've fried one SSD drive and looks like the other is going to go now. Haven't been able to get this thing running right since i got it. Flashed the bios 10 different times now and still not working correctly. I'm hoping it was just this mobo. Be warned allot of reviews have had the same problems.

Pros: great cards run everything i play at max graphics no prob open card with twin fans not encased card like the others cools down fast,

Cons: nothing that i can think of other than when running in SLI the cards are so big that they get kind of smashed together and the top card can't breath and gets supper hot, have to run fan full blast to keep it from frying up

Pros: awesome case, lots of room , and ya don't have worry about those huge graphics cards banging into your hard drives or anything else.Great air flow i bottom mounted my power supply and kept that huge fan on top and it's really quiet, my graphics cards make more noise.

Cons: none other than the side shield with the nice dragon pic on it is really fragile so don't bang into it with anything i already did and broke a couple of the pins that hold it in and cracked the beautiful picture

Overall Review: if you need room for lots of stuff this is the case for you
