Pros: Nice factory overclock straight out of the box. Quality heatsink/fan design, arguably the best cooler available for the GTX 460 unless you're going water. Even when running folding@home GPU3 client @ 950MHz Core / 1900MHz shaders and 55% fan speed, the card is running at 56*C full load! And that's with 1.137v applied (BIOS mod).

Cons: No cooling on the VRM's, but I knew this before buying & honestly, this won't affect you unless you're planning to absolutely overclock this card to its limits 24/7 and/or have your PC in a very hot area for long periods of time.

Overall Review: Had this card up to 1002 core / 2004 shaders / 4000 memory with a modified BIOS, but this was at -4*C ambients outside! If you're on a budget but still want some amazing DX11 performance, this is the card you want. I got it for $132 after rebate which is just silly when you think about the performance one of these cards has. I also owned the Cyclone version at one point & it's pretty much just as good as this. The cooler on the Cyclone is quieter but the TwinFrozrII heatsink/fans work just a bit better at cooling the card.

Pros: Fantastic set of RAM if you're looking for some good performing DDR3-1600. I've been able to run this set at 1866 with 8-9-8-24-1T at 1.6v without problems. Will clock all the way up to 2155 9-11-9-28-1T at 1.6v which is amazing. Got this set for $55 and couldn't be happier.

Cons: None at this price point!

Overall Review: Coupled with a Sandy Bridge processor, this memory really comes to life. I can recommend this RAM to anybody who doesn't want to spend the extra $25 for CAS6. I only use Mushkin and G.Skill RAM. Zero issues so far! Oh yeah, almost forgot, it matches my P67-UD3P quite nicely also :D

Pros: See Other Thoughts

Cons: See Other Thoughts

Overall Review: Look I know nobody likes reading reviews from people who don't own the product; I know that. But I would really love to know if this kit really does have black PCB like in the Newegg photos? G.Skill's website shows green PCB.

Pros: Where do i begin? The card itself looks amazing, very high-quality. The Cyclone cooler MSI uses on this card is absolutely terrific. Dead-silent in Auto even under full stress. I keep it at 60% with 800 core / 1600 shader / 4000 Memory and I can't hear the card. Idle temp with those clocks is 30*C while load hits 58*C running Kombustor for 45 minutes. I have pushed this card to 900MHz on the core, but that's with the voltage increased to its maximum. While it didn't really affect the temperatures much, I didn't see the need to over-volt the card so I kept it at stock volts. Runs every game I own maxed out. Up to 11,000 PPD running folding@Home. Fantastic graphics card!

Cons: I honestly can't think of any. It's obviously the less powerful version of the two GTX 460's available, but don't let the "Only 768MB of RAM & a 192-bit bandwidth" stuff fool you. This card runs great at 1600x900 running Crysis in Very High with 8x Anti-Aliasing and 16x AF. I didn't see the need for the slightly faster 1GB version.

Overall Review: 3DMark06 Score = 20,181 with a 4.4GHz Core 2 Duo E8400. I'm happy.

Pros: This is what a lot of people have been waiting for from Nvidia. This card offers fantastic performance for its price. Almost all versions of these cards clock to 800MHz + on stock voltage and cooling, bringing performance close to the GTX 470 & even 480 levels. At those speeds it outperforms even the HD 5850. The 1GB offers a slight bump in performance but even this 768MB model will give you great gameplay in almost any game besides Metro 2033. In SLI, it performs ~ 33% better than a GTX 480 in Metro 2033. Runs quiet, runs cool, and consumes a lot less than the GF100 cards. Idles around 25 watts and peaks around 150 on stock clocks. Fantastic card for people who don't want to spend a fortune.

Cons: At this price, I honestly can't say there are any.

Overall Review: If you're on a budget, this card offers the best performance/buck out there. Just remember to overclock these puppies, they will shine!

Pros: Great card, but nothing better than the 65nm GTX260 Core 216.

Cons: This new 55nm card actually produces more heat than the 65nm card due to a crippled cooler. When you take the cooler off you notice that it uses less heatpipes and the contact area is smaller as well. This card also uses more power (!!) than the 65nm for unexplained reasons.

Overall Review: This card is not 10% faster clock for clock than the 65nm Core 216 as stated by "That Guy". This card performs equally to the older 65nm cards. If you're looking to buy the GTX260 Core 216, go for the least expensive one; even if it's a 65nm.
