Great bang for the buck!

Great card for the price. Played a few games completely maxed out on resolution and ran as smooth as can be. Up until 4 am last night after install playing COD4 & 5.

- Exhaust fan in rear
- 1GB of DDR3 memory

I upgraded from XFX 6600GTX so this was a huge upgrade for me. Upgraded system memory to 3GB from 1GB and this card at same time. Performance boost was just incredible.

Newegg gave me COD5 with this card for free!

Card is big. Make sure you have room. Fit in my case just fine. It is 10.5" long. It's a brick. It does take up two slots but any card in this category will. As long as you have room, not a con.

I love this card. All of my games look so different. It's pretty incredible. I have always bought XFX cards and they have always put out a great product. I will stick to them in the future.

I was a little apprehensive about buying this without any ratings, but then I thought, "It's XFX, I can't go wrong" Sure enough, I was right.

For those looking for an upgrade that don't want to spend $400 - $500 on a video card, get this one. You won't be sorry you did.

TOP CRITICAL REVIEW
Crashes

When it works its great. Old games like Starwars Pod Racer and Rogue Squadron work and max eye candy on Test Drive Unlimited, COD:WAW are no problem for this video card. Works great under Windows 7 RC.

Crashes after about 10-15 min of playing any game or video. Seems like the card over heats and only a cold boot will restart the system. Dealing with XFX now since pass the 30 day Newegg return.

Tried Riva Tuner to increase the fan speed and down clock the GPU and memory but no luck. Tried Radeon 4760 and 9600GT, both work with no problem in the same system. Will repost if and when problem resolved.
