Good card for price

SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 5770 (Juniper XT) 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 100283L
SAPPHIRE Radeon HD 5770 (Juniper XT) 1GB GDDR5 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card 100283L

Pros: The price compared to some other cards. I have two of these running in CrossfireX and get awesome FPS. if your on a budget and need a good card, this is one to get. drivers are fine and haven't had problem with them like I did before these.

Cons: none. Just make sure the PSU you are using puts out the recommended amount of W.

Overall Review: My Rig: Coolmaster 830 case w/7 fans Core i7 920(stock heat sink/fan)get better temps with stock than 12GB Patriot Viper Tri Channel 6GB PC10666 DDR3 - 1333MHz, 6144MB 2-ATI 5770 Juniper video cards 3-500Gigs HDD Zalman 6-fan speed controller 750W Ultra PSU(updating to Modular) 2-22" wide screen displays

Not so good

HIS Radeon HD 3870 512MB GDDR4 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card H387Q512NP
HIS Radeon HD 3870 512MB GDDR4 PCI Express 2.0 x16 CrossFireX Support Graphics Card H387Q512NP

Pros: Hahaha, cool design and thats about it.

Cons: This thing wouldnt last on 90% of my games: WoW-crashed, WiC-crashed, CoD's-crashed, CoH-crashed, BF2-plays fine. With WiC, I dropped ALL graphics settings to low and it plays fine. I adjust pixel setting to medium and freaking fan jumped to 100% useage and crashed. I took out of case and thing was still SOOOOO HOT after time it takes to disconnect everything and open case and remove card, bout 5 min. RMA this card and getting another. if fails, going elsewhere.

Overall Review: 700W PSU, Abit IX38 Quad GT, 2G-GSkill DDR2 800MHZ, 3.0GHZ OC to 3.5GHZ E6850 CPU

Overall Review: Well, I bought this to replace a Samsung monitor that failed after about nine years. I have another Sceptre monitor that is older than that Samsung and still going. It works well, looks good and sure it will last more than nine years.

Awesome Card

MSI GeForce 8800GTS (G92) 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card NX8800GTS 512M OC
MSI GeForce 8800GTS (G92) 512MB GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 SLI Support Graphics Card NX8800GTS 512M OC

Pros: This card is awesome. Averaged 50FPS with it runnig 3dbencmark05. scored 19000 with it as well.

Cons: Card's stock fan setting is little low and ran 50C idle, but RivaTuner2.08 does the trick and now run 36-38C idle. Not a con but just an insight to whomever buys this card.

Overall Review: Core2Duo E6850@3GHZ OC to 3.45GHZ, 2GB DDR2 SDRAM PC2 6400 GSkill RAM, 2-250GB SATA HDD, both Hitachi, 600W Ultra PSU, ABIT IX38 Quad GT LGA 775 Intel X38 MoBo. HIS-3870 Vid Card is what I exchanged this card for. That HIS-3870 was a POFS. Crashed on almost every game I ran with this exact same setup. Good job MSI for making an awesome reliable vid card.
