Mixed Review

EVGA 512-P3-N867-AR GeForce 9600GT SSC 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card
EVGA 512-P3-N867-AR GeForce 9600GT SSC 512MB 256-bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Supported Video Card

Pros: Powerful card. Munched right through nearly EVERY game I sent at it, and at max resolution (1920x1200 if available). Easy install and snazzy looking card. Runs cool!

Cons: Simcity Societies couldn't QUITE be maxed out without seeing some jittering. Card also had a small bend in the metal plate containing the DVI connectors (bent back by hand). Card has black screened 2 or 3 times, but I'm still not sure why. CERTAINLY is not because of my PSU, which is quite oversized. I'm hoping it's just an immature driver issue that gets worked out. Hasn't happened in weeks <knock on wood>

Overall Review: If you have the patience, wait a little longer to see prices continue to drop and the technology to mature. I still second-guess myself if I should have gone with the 8800GT instead.
