Pros: Out performs the 6800GS in every benchmark in every review I've read, even at higher resoultions with high/levels of AA/AF. If you're in need of an upgrade and don't wanna spend over $xxx this is the best choice since its using newer, more efficient architecture than the Geforce 6800 series, and offers much better DVD/hdtv playback.
Cons: Fan gets kinda loud when games start to play but its easily drowned out by my speakers.
Overall Review: Regarding the person who wrote the review titled: "Still doesn't beat the 6800GS" First, this is not a message board. This is for people who actually own the product unlike yourself. Second, don't use this customer review system to write false imformation which you have done. And third, why are you calling people who bought this card fanboys?
