Pros: great card for the price, overclocking is phenomenal stability is rock solid

Cons: fan may seem like its not working but the manual tuning of riva tuner got it spinning at 100%

Overall Review: the ati overdrive sucks for overclocking, i could get this card up to 900mhz core 1200mhz on the ram with riva tuner now i can run any game on max setting with a 1280*1024 resolution (yes even crysis) all while keeping the core at a cool 60 degrees celsius, which is very good if you are using an air cooled system

Pros: good board for the money and its some what reliable

Cons: the ide controller on this thing sucks, i tired to connect a ide harddrive and dvd drive to the same ide channel(since it only has one) and it would work fine untill the dvd drive had to access large files (such as a program installer) it would get this weird looking screen that looked like if an original nintindo game had locked up the pc and no error messages on what would be causing the problem, so i switched the hard drive for a sata ready one and the problem has gone away, is as if the IDE controller would get confused on what files where coming and going then crash

Overall Review: dont put more than one device on the IDE channel or you will see some funky looking error screens
