FSX on High

Pros: 2 of these in SLI and Flight Simulator 9 is OWNED!! FSX still a little jittery with all settings on Ultra-High when flying around big cities with alot of weather and clouds. I just put weather on low and everything else Ultra-High and 20 fps-no problem!!
Cons: None
Overall Review: My Rig: AMD Dual Core 6400 (3.2) AM2, Dual 8600 GTS cards, 4 GB GSkill DDR2, Asus M2N-SLI board. Smilodon case.
Not bad...

Pros: Looks cool, lots of fans, very sturdy, folding doors are a neat idea but....
Cons: ...every time you open the doors its a puzzle to get everything that binds up or is attached unplugged so it will open all the way without breaking something. Then remembering to hook everything back up when closing it and with the extra little swing-out bar you need 4 hands to do it. I also installed a new vid card (HIS Radeon HD 5870) which is HUGE and it hits the hard drive bay and binds up when closing. The fron door is neat but kinda useless, it sits there open all the time on my system sticking out, I have thought baout just removing it but I am getting a new (deeper) case. Also, no filtering system so I have to take it out to the shop once a month and blow out all the dust.
DOES work with XP 64bit

Pros: Fast N- Dual band too... nice. Works best with Linksys E3000 Router....
Cons: Took a few minutes to figure out how to get to work on Xp 64-bit. Win 7 64bit automatically installed and worked fine without running CD at all, for Windows XP 64 bit, DON'T run cd at all, go to www.ralinktech.com and search for drivers for RT 2860, download and use their app to install. Works quick and simple.....
Overall Review: Can't believe Linksys isn't providing support for XP 64 bit, guess they want everyone to upgrade to Win7....
Makes Flight Simming More Realistic

Pros: Very cool yoke, feels right, works right, makes flight simming that much more realistic. With this yoke, a 24" widescreen monitor, HIS Radeon HD 5870 card running FSX on high makes any FAA approved flight simulator look like an '80s video game.
Cons: Plastic?
EASY LO-PROFILE DUAL MONITORS

Pros: Card comes with low prfile bracket which installs easily, volume discount was a bonus. Used lots of these cards to add second monitors around the office in low-profile gateway boxes.
Cons: DON'T USE THE DISC THAT COMES WITH IT!! Download the drivers and software from asus website. Even if its the same version that comes in the box, i used the disc and immediately had problems, downloaded the stuff off the asus website, presto!! 2 monitors!
Overall Review: Needs its own power plug, the cable in my boxes were too short to reach between this card and the nearby HDD, bought a bunch of 30mm fans that came with extensions that solved my problems and added a litte cooling too.
Can't Wait For The 2nd One!!!

Pros: Everything, fast, fast. This card on my ASUS AM2 mobo with an AMD X2 6400 chip and 4 GB of ram produces 30 fps on FSX with settings on Ultra-High. FS9 got 60 fps!! Can't wait to get another one and hook them up in SLI !!!! SWEET!!
Cons: Could've been 2-for-1??...lol.
