Most Favorable Review

Inexpensive upgrade

AMD Athlon 64 4000+ - Athlon 64 San Diego Single-Core 2.4 GHz Socket 939 89W Processor - ADA4000DKA5CF

Pros: Superb inexpensive upgrade for the almost dead CPU socket type motherboards.

Cons: Socket 939

Overall Review: It'd be silly to purchase a Socket 939 motherboard at this point. Great for upgrading existing systems for cheap.

Pros: Works exactly as advertised. Great black finish.

Cons: Gets a bit hot.

Great card for price

Pros: This card is a steal and it comes with Call of Duty 4. I haven't had any problems whatsoever. I've yet to test it with Crysis, but I've been able to play other recently released games with the settings all the way up without slowdown.

Cons: It's not as fast as the upper end card and you don't get as much onboard memory, but you end up getting much more than you pay for with this card.

Overall Review: Upgraded from a 6800GT and the difference in performance is huge. Granted it's a newer card, but I got it for half the price.
