Pros: MSI did a good job with their solid caps and this card OC's very good. Pretty much the card can run everything. Price Any DX10 game runs great.

Cons: The card is so good my mobo(Nforce410) and ddr400 ram and my cpu(4200x2 socket 939|OC 2.9ghz)are the bottleneck now so I only gained on avr. 10-30 fps on DX9 games against my old 8600gts. I cant get the full out DX10 games either but I still see a lot bigger improvement in them.

Overall Review: You might want to make sure the rest of your computer can take care of this cards extreme bandwith. I will have to upgrade my mobo now along with a new CPU when I can.

Pros: It looks good and plays clean.

Cons: No resell value

Overall Review: I think its a good game but Im not really into the 3rd person WOW style fighting.I didnt play past about 16hrs of gameplay before I uninstalled to make room for other stuff on my tiny 160GB HD. Too bad, I might have finished the game in the next year if I had space.

Pros: Quad core! 8mb L2 cache!! $220!!! Two things that high demanding new programs love and one thing broke people love. OCed out of box 2.8Ghz with no voltage change. Running 3Ghz with a slight bump in voltage(CPU can clock up to 3.2-3.4Ghz on most systems). Combine with 8800GTS 512mb (775mhz/1900mhzRAM) and 2 gigs OCZ Ram DDR800 OC to 1000mhz on a Intel G33 chipset and games run like they should. CPU build price was less then $1000 Including GPU.

Cons: None for CPU. Vista however decided it likes my new RAM so it uses alot more of it (Go figure). I need 2 more gigs to run BF2 from the year 2005 on full settings. Mind it is a DX9 game. For some reason BF2 will stutter if you use all the ram and your CPU starts its page file stuff.

Overall Review: Went from AMD 4200+x2 OC(2.8ghz) and 2gig DDR400(440mhz est.) Nforce400/6100onboard. Had the same 8800GTS in the old rig which made a bottleneck. FPS test are as follows. Old rig CS:S FPS test avr=124...New Rig CS:S FPS test avr=261..The jumps are very big in DX10 games also. I.E. FSX DX10. Old rig KJFK airport 12-17FPS (no autogen/light bloom,ect.). New rig KJFK airport 40-60FPS (Lots of autogen/effects, etc.). The stutter is a thing of the past with my new rig. And I would have to say I am very happy with all the hardware. And Im stuck needing to get 2 more gigs of ram for Vista.

Pros: Ram overclocked to 1000Mhz on 2.0v or less and wow this ram screams.Didnt have a problem with the OC whatsoever in fact I had these chips OC'ed to almost 1100 with no problem.

Cons: None really. I guess the worst thing is I cant still have the 4-4-4-12 timings at 1000mhz.

Overall Review: Should have got 4 gigs. I will have to order a second pair soon. Vista is annoying, The more you give it the more it uses.
