Pros:
Eats graphics-intensive games. Easy installation. I was a little concerned about the power supply demands of this card from my 5th Gen XPS, but after some digging around the extra power cable was located and everything was grand. Heck there's even an extra 60 watts I can save for a rainy day. I was also concerned about the amount of heat I would be dealing with. The answer is that it didn't really matter and there's no discernible difference between the heat produced by this and the heat my old 6800 Ultra was putting out. In addition, the fan on this is quieter than my 6800 ever was.
Cons:
Half-Life 2 had some weird texture problems with the NPC's. These seem to have cleared themselves up after playing with in-game settings. No other issues.
