Pros: I would have to say at the moment it's the best bang for you buck as far as video cards go. Like the other posts mentioned, 720p resolution is flawless. I was viewing pictures on my old Samsung 56' DLP and even then the colors were vibrant and crisp. This is my third different Sapphire and definitely not my last. Their build quality is excellent, never had a bad card from them. Love this freakin card....

Cons: None... Are you kidding me? It's a Sapphire people...

Overall Review: Installed on Windows 7 and Windows XP (dual boot) with no problems. Downloaded the latest drivers and they too installed with no problems. If you lose sound from your sound card or on board sound, just go into control panel and set your sound card back to default. (that's if your not using HDMI out of video card for sound). For some reason Windows sets the video cards sound to default after installing. Easy fix, like I said just set it back to default if your not using your HDMI out that often. You can toggle back in forth in the sound options depending on which sound you are using.

2.6 Ghz not 2.4

Pros: Rock solid and runs fairly cool with stock heatsink and fan. The AM2 version runs at 2.6 Ghz not 2.4 (socket 939 runs at that speed).

Cons: Newegg would probably sell more of these cpu's if they changed the description from 2.4 to 2.6.

Overall Review: ASUS M2V motherboard, 2 GB Corsair DDR2 800, Radeon 1600 Pro
