Good if you tweak it a bit

This card will run Bioshock and other recent games at highest settings with a nice FPS. The stock cooler isn't louder than any of the other fans in my case.

As mentioned, this card is *big*. When I first installed the card, the fan made a horrid clicking sound when it spun up, which needed a bit of questionable tweaking to fix (a few screws loosened, and a bit of prying with a screwdriver).

The questionable tweaking seemed to have worked, leading to a quiet card.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Pretty fast, but hot and big

Fast for the money. Runs BioShock great and performs modestly with Crysis when set at 1240x1024.

This thing is just runs really hot and needs a better cooling device, it tops out at over 100C before crashing. To top it of this thing is huge, had to mode every case I tried to put this thing in.

I returned this card and got a much faster card from newegg.com which came out to be the same after considering it's rebate and this 1950XT would need a 3rd party cooler and 45minutes of my time to run properly.

If nothing else this card has a bright future at boiling water.
