ASUS Radeon HD 3850 DirectX 10.1 EAH3850/G/HTDI/512M 512MB 256-Bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready CrossFireX Support Video Card

Pros: Coolest running 3850 out in the market. Fan blows much stronger then the last 3850 (sapphire which burned out on me) without having to tweak the fan settings. Ultra quite. I don't run crossfire cause I'm not much of a gamer, just needed a cool, reliable card.

Cons: then again, if it doesn't get hot so it cant cook me eggs...also, company of heroes game that came with it is sucks.

Overall Review: Get this card, it wont disappoint you in any way. Running E6850, Asus P5E, Corsair TWIN2X2048-6400, Silverstone NT01V2.0, this card, thermaltake 500w PSU, Antec P180 silver.

Pros: Fast card uses little power, came with all the goodies and COH is addiciting. Quick install solid drivers so far. And as always Newegg rocked on the shipping side. - It appeared in the a HUGE box well protected and in pristine shape.

Cons: A little noisy but very tolerable. I run an air filter in my office that can easily drown this guy out.

Overall Review: I have it installed in a asus M2NPV-VM motherboard and the only problem is the heat sink/fan assembly blocks 2 of my sata ports. Additionally I had to give up a IDE port because the card just reached over the top of the IDE ports and the connector. With a cable installed the cable connector is 1/8 of an inch too tall so it would not allow the card to seat fully. This forced me to do some unanticipated hardware exhanges amongst my various machines to get it set up. So instead of rebuilding one machine I ended up having to rebuild 3 over the holidays lol oh well they needed xp flushed anyway.

Pros: After a month and a half of constant use this awsome card is still chugging at full steam :) I couldnt be happier and of course i got it OC'd a bit IDOLS@37c under full load it never goes over 60c BEST CARD IVE EVER OWNED!!

Cons: sometimes catalyst drivers stop responding but sience i downloaded the 8.7 version it doesnt happen as often :) hardly a con considering it only happened couple times, besides that THIS CARD IS WORTHY OF A CHAMPION NAME ! GO ASUS.

Overall Review: Runs Crysis on Very high settings with minimal hickups!! PLUS World in Conflict Looks and plays flawlesly with this baby, Assasins Creed plays on all the settings turned up high beautfully as well.

Pros: Very Quiet even at 80 to 100% Fan Speeds. Full accessories kit for eventual Crossfire Configuration. It runs my previously problem game LOTRO at very high setting without a hitch.

Cons: Still Need to get Riva or ATI Tool to customize fan settings if you want to keep it out of upper 60 deg. C under load but it runs significantly better and quieter than my ATI Crossfire 1900XT.

Overall Review: Based on reviews I just installed it using the Catalyst 8.3 suite. No problems observed.

Pros: Was a late comer to the market and appears to be the best and maybe best cooling solution too. Stock clocks handles everything.

Cons: You will want to delete the smart doctor stuff. It can cause blue screens.

Overall Review: desktop / properties / settings /advanced/ asus/ also disabled splidid and gamer OSD to make sure blue screen didnt come back. It was a disp.dll and many people have blamed that on the smart doctor that I wasnt even using.

Pros: SOLID CARD! You can not beat the speed and memory size with DX10 and PCIe2.0 FOR THE COST of this board. It's the single best choice for the money, period.

Cons: It doesn't have the amazing warranty that EVGA cards do, but ASUS is still amazing as its always been.

Overall Review: HL2 Deathmatch, average frame rate is nearly 200.

Pros: This card idles at a very cool 30C. What a change from my last card (X1900GT) that idled at over 50C! The card is also very quiet, comes with a game, and can play Crysis at Very High quality at 1024x768 (I'd guess ~ 20-25fps).

Cons: Not the fastest card out there, but for the money it's a very good performer. For only a little more money you could get an HD3870 card which would give you a bit more speed.

Overall Review: If you're not a hardcore gamer but still like to play the latest games every so often, this is the card for you!

Pros: Has good specs?

Cons: I put this in my PC and I havnt had anything but hassel so far! I got he 8.8 cataylst and I cant run RCT3, Crysis, or FSX! It has MAJOR problems with textures going everywhere! I dont know maybe if someone could recomend a better set of drivers? But so far very dissapointed!

Overall Review: I was really looking forward to getting to get some major increases in performance!
