Second msi gtx 260

Pros: this is my second order had to order another because the deal is soo good 149.99 after rebate + free game I posted earlier the first 1 i have artifacts at stock settings this second one is perfect
Cons: quality control im not too confident in msis quality control
Overall Review: oc to 700 1475 1165 stable in every game meets or beats gtx 280 in all games except in 2560x1600 res Now if someone could figure out how to reenable the extra cores gtx 260 are 280s with some core laser cut and blocked
WOW OH WOW

Pros: got it used for 44 bucks! not from the egg tho Core 2 duo not dual core 45nm MAYBE THE LOWEST WATT PER PERFORMANCE IN THE MARKET HTPC CHAMPION. green champ overclocked to 4ghz!! havent stabilized (tweaked)
Cons: none that i can see super cheap oc to 4ghz your looking at competing with 250 chips you lose what 10% performance with 2mb cache oc will erase those loses
Overall Review: I have a i7 4.2ghz q6600 3.6ghz q9650 at 4ghz sold -e4200 3.2 this maybe the best bang for buck on any overclock EVER? did i mention how low power draw idle and load near atom levels but with 400%-600% performance increase
silent to a point

Pros: nice well made excellent performance quiet to a point
Cons: gets loud when running near 400 + watts maybe disadvantage to a 140mm fan at higher watt outputs
Good but not great

Pros: Lowest price for 260 216 55 came with free game also relative lower power consumption Fan noise is quiet when running under 55-60 percent
Cons: Factory overclocked setting was unstable and caused artifacts lowering the memory clock fixed this
Overall Review: msi should not be advertising this overclock speed in not 100 percent stable on all their boards
perfect did its job nice quality

Pros: finally tight attachment cpu pins are a horrible design
Cons: non that i can think of
Overall Review: did its job
3.6 overclock

Pros: Great bang for the buck Made me move from a 65nm to another 65nm lol G0 stepping
Cons: vid 1.3 high volts in bios 1.55 to stay 3.6 stable power consumption
Overall Review: Ordered a kill a watt want to see the exact watt difference from 2.4 3.2. 3.3. 3.4. 3.6 overclocks
