Most Favorable Review

Very happy with this card!

Pros: * Great card! * Has been able to handle anything I've thrown at it so far. * Not too long, so fits easily in my case. * The heatsink on this thing is MASSIVE. This card looks pretty wicked in my case.

Cons: * Price is a bit much. * Don't need the games that come with it. * The heatsink on this thing is MASSIVE. This sucker is 2.5 slots wide. Might be an issue for folks vertically mounting this in smaller cases.

Overall Review: PC is a Ryzen 7 3800X with 32gb DDR4-3600 RAM. Running at Ultra settings in Destiny 2 at 3440x1440 resolution and the card barely breaks a sweat. The fans do spin up, but it's not super loud. Very happy with this card so far!

Works great, but not a 1-size fits all

Pros: This thing works VERY well right out of the box. It's pretty much a plug-and-go device. I've had no problems with it since I got it installed and plugged in. Being able to select the AC97 or HD connector for the audio is a definite plus.

Cons: Size. This sucker just doesn't want to fit very well into my chassis. It's on the large size of a 3.5" floppy drive bay, width and height wise. I don't own a Silverstone chassis, so I can't say if it fits perfectly into their chassis, but it's an EXTREMELY tight fit in my Chenbro.

Overall Review: With my motherboard documention handy, getting the plugs into the headers on the board was a snap - just had to make sure I had pin1 in the right place.
