Most Favorable Review

80 bucks for 400% faster, this is basically x1650pro

Pros: 80 lousy dollars. the fan is super quiet, if your fan is noisy it is defective. Runs all eye candy at full unless you need 1900 by 2200 resolution. Counterstrike Stress test at 1024 by 768 ALL HIGH settings and 4xAA scored 90 fps. PERFECT Newegg transaction. Byebye any desire at all to buy an Xbox 360

Cons: I wish it created some heat or noise or something to complain about, but NO cons. 10 minute install as I went from basically an ATI low pipeline card to an ATI high pipeline card. THe Nvidia 7600GT would have been 40 percent faster but could have been a nightmare to swap over brands. Nah, I dont really need Half Life2 at 100 fps, 70 does just fine.

Overall Review: Upgraded my little X300 to this X1300XT which is within 10 percent of what the X1650pro can do. I did not feel like spending over double the price for 5 dumb FPS more. I DID feel like spending a measly 80 bucks to transform my Dell 8400 pentium 4 3.2 ghz with 1 gig ram into a monster. The only game that will not run smoothly at 1280 by 960 is perhaps Oblivion. All others are awesome. 3dmark05 score went from 1120 to 4128 : )

L80 is a headache REDUCER

Pros: I dont use all the crazy amount of features on this one, but after tring to save money with 50 to 100 fax printers I decided to splurge. Unlike the uber cheap panasonic fax printers I tried, the L80 starts right up, does not jam ever, and puts out great looking copies, prints, and faxes.

Cons: Sample Toner cartridge will need a full refill usually after 500 papers or so. If you just print out short papers without a bunch of background noise the full refills may last longer than you live , I dont know if thats a con

Overall Review: I only bought one of these on new egg, but since got another one cheap elsewhere, and found a used one elswhere that I gave to my dad. That way he doesnt have to call me up for tech support Viva not cussing at printer jams anymore and especially the 4,000 paper capacity of the toner cartridge under average use.
