Pros: Amazing video, looks great, and performs amazingly for CUDA applications.

Cons: After taking about a half inch by one inch section off the bottom of my CD drive bay, it fit perfectly. I was tempted to add some support structure for the card, the thing is massive and heavy, but so far all is well. Installation manual should be revised to read, Required Tools: Phillips Head Screwdriver Die Grinder (for some models) Guy Wires (optional)

Overall Review: It's kind of a bummer that it takes two slots, but that's the price you pay. I put it into a shallow case which presented some problems, but worked out OK. Card is: 10.5" (L) x 3.75" (W) x 1.5" (H)

Pros: This thing can eat up Fallout 3, You get Far Cry 2, 3DMark Vantage, and a BFG Super Bright LED flashlight by mail when you register it! It isn't any noisier than the stock cooling fan I am running on my Phenom 9850. Crysis runs great, Gears of War is Solid on it too. For the price this card kicks booty! I can't wait to get this in SLI and even Tri-SLI!!

Cons: HUGE!!! This card is like installing a large fridgerator in a small apartment kitchen, you really have to wiggle it in there. It's heavy, Literally could hurt someone with it! Also takes 2 more amps to run than your normal GTX260! So my PS with the 36 amp rails is at a smidge of a loss unfortunatly. So if you have a small case, you may want to get something bigger seeing as how all cards these days seem to just be getting bigger.

Overall Review: I thought it was pretty cool how the entire card is just encased in what seems likea giant aluminum heat sink! You cant see any circuitry at all! This card is big, but suprisingly not that hot, so if you can fit it in your case its worth the money! You get over 80 bucks worth of stuff by mail just for registering the card with BFG for the lifetime warrenty, seriously nothing to complain about there at all! BUY this card if you want to game and don't wan tot spend 600 bucks on a vid card!!!

Pros: Great price for the preformance of this card. Good for mid range gamming system builders.

Cons: Not really a con, but the card is large ands yes you do need at least 525 for a single card and nothing less then 850 watt PSU for two.

Overall Review: Can run a litte hot under a load but that is taken care of by turning the fan speed up.

Pros: ?

Cons: Popped it in the system starter her up and fan was grinding against the casing. Have to pay to ship it back to have it RMA'd.

Pros: Bought this as an upgrade from 8600GT - very nice visual boost. Best performance upgrade for your money (bang for your buck) IMHO. Very happy with my purchase. I previously had to sacrifice visuals for smooth play previously but this GTX260 handles all my current gaming needs (World of Warcraft, StarCraft II Beta) at max settings - no more sacrifices. This should be able to handle many other games at max/near max settings although I've not put the time into installing and trying them just yet. I can report back later on those.

Cons: See Other Thoughts.

Overall Review: Not really a con, but wanted to reiterate the size of these cards. They are big, but fit into my Antec Nine-Hundred case with no problems at all. Intel DG965RY Motherboard | Intel Core 2 Duo E6700 2.66GHz | 4GB Corsair XMS 800 DDR2 RAM | This Card | Intel 80GB G2 SSD | 750GB Western Digital RE | Creative Sound Blaster Audigy Platinum Fatal1ty Champion Edition | Logitech G15 Keyboard | Logitech G5 Gaming Mouse | Logitech Z2300 2.1 THX Certified Speakers | Dell 2407WFP Monitor | Dell 2007WFP Monitor (vertical)

Pros: The price/performance ratio on this card is great. Run's all my games at max settings just fine.

Cons: Huge card, covers my only PCI slot, SATA headers, clear CMOS pin, and runs pretty dang hot..80c during gaming. I have a Full tower case, 3 feet tall, and the card was 1 1/2 inches from hitting the HD cages. Used same card in a mid tower case for a friend and had to actually pry open a HD cage so the card could slid into it...Make sure you have room, or dont mind a lil ghetto case modding to get it to fit.

Overall Review: Good thing nvidia has great support of Linux drivers, or i may have tried ATI this time around.

Pros: My previous 3 cards were ATI and I was leaning toward 4870 1GB. But at this card's current price, considering the lifetime warranty of BFG, it was too good a value to pass up. With the fan speed upped from 40 to 50%, the card idles at ~45C and ~65C under load. In my case the GTX 260's fan is not audible below 60%.

Cons: I wish Nvidia included the ability to force refresh rates in the driver control panel. ATI includes this feature in its Catalyst program (note this has nothing to do with BFG).

Overall Review: system: AMD X3 Phenom II 720 BE @2.80GHz Artcic Cooling Freezer 64 Pro Gigabyte MA790XT-UD4P G. Skill 1333 DDR3 4GB WD Blue 640 GB BFG GTX 260 Corsair 650W PSU Coolermaster RC 690 Case

Pros: Nice product. BFGs cards are one of the best. I have owned 3 already. Upgraded from a 8800GTS G92 512 in SLI to this one in SLI also. I didn`t see much difference except when you consider that I went from a 19" to a 26" (view my samsung monitor review - great product). Overall it is a very solid product and supports very high resolutions even with full AA and max graphics settings. Its a cheap VGA for the performance you get. Make sure you check how many processing cores you are getting if you are considering other 260s instead of this one. This BFG has 216! It only loses to 280s which I believe have 240.

Cons: Huge. Just huge. People are not kidding when they say it is huuge. I had a 8800gts and I thought: that's a big *ss videocard. It did fit in my case, so I have no complains. It actually fit by 1 inch or less (pheeeew). Therefore I had to alternate my Hard drives between the 2 cards, so now the clearance between the videocards and the HDs are about 1/2 inch. =D POWER HUNGRY. Make sure you got a nice power supply. This one uses 2 6 pin connector and since I use 2 cards, I needed 4 connectors. Good thing BFG provides ONE cable (IDE to 6 Pin converter) per videocard, so make sure you got extra 6pins if you are doing SLI like me.
