Cons: none

Overall Review: the fan is not loud at all. i am fixing to get a better moto so i can get 2 of these babies and sli right now i just have 1 pciexpress. evga will give u the choice of upgrading in 3 months to an 8800 like a stepup plan this card is the second best on the market ....plan on taking that option to save me money u want a cheep way to get an 8800/s this card would be ur best bet. id recomend it to every1.

Pros: Runs Half-Life 2, Counter Strike, Day of Defeat, etc. with all settings maxed. Excellent price/performance ratio. Fan only runs when you're playing a game, and shuts off for normal apps. Isn't near as power hungry as some other high-end cards out there. Runs just fine in a Core 2 system with a 330W power supply.

Cons: Fan is kind of noisy when it does turn on, but this is true of just about any video card today. If you're concerned about noise, buy an aftermarket cooler, or turn the volume up on your headphones :)

Overall Review: The 7900GS has to be just about the best deal out there right now for gamers on a budget. If you're like me and don't have $xxx+ to spend on a video card, this is the one you want. This card should easily run just about any current game. It should be more than sufficient until some reasonably priced DX10 cards become available.

Pros: I bought this card to use while my 7900GTX is going thru step-up processing, and I am really impressed with it, and it's price. The card installed with no problems, the fan is quiet and temps stay around 58c under a moderate load, and the heat sink is all copper not aluminum like alot. I have not OC'd the card yet so final #'s are not known, but compared to the 7900GTX with no OC'ing they posted these benchmarks: PC Mark'05: GTX 6788 7900GS=6273 3dMark'06: GTX=6800 7900GS=4300 There is no noticable difference in pix quality with DVD's or TV viewing. Plays FEAR, DOOM3, Oblivion,FarCry and BF2 with no problems, I did have to turn the I candy down some, but i am also using a 1680x1050 res. on most games. It is no GTX for gaming, but it still kicks axx. and it was alot cheaper..

Cons: None.

Overall Review: EVGA has wonderful customer support, they will go above and beyond to satisfy a customer and that is very hard to find this day and time. This card is also covered with the step-up program so if I was to decide to in the next 90 days I could step this one up for another 8800GTX, be able to SLI and will not have lost no money on this card, but as good as it games(the 7900GS), I think one 8800GTX will do and I will give this 7900GS to the kids and sell their 6800GT. That is what my son is hoping will happen anyway... Buy this card you want be sorry,it is a great card, and EVGA and Newegg are both great,no loss situation...

Pros: Awsome product highly recommended, EVGA Lifetime warranty was what caught my attention with this particular purchase. Going to the EVGA Website registering with them and doing the 11.XX warranty swap thing if anything was to ever go wrong with it, second day saturday shipping...wow how tough is it to see a great product when you see it. All copper heat sink and DDR3 memory @ 256 MB and 20 Pixel Pipelines, simply awsome. Could be better, unlocking the additional 4 pipelines, but after extensive research with the investigation on how to unlock the other 4 pipelines, ive come to the conclusion that these additional rendering pipes are lazer locked and cannot even be done by a soft mod or for noobies, a lead pencil. Only ones to unlock would be some BFG models, that have since been sold out and now just the standard blah blah blah chip is installed.

Cons: No Cons, except for the lack of a better word of a loud HS/F, replaced with a Zalman, with the ajustable fan speed, and aftermarket heatsinks for the memory. Can sucessfully take the memory up past 1.80 GHz, and Core stable with minor artificating at 610 MHz, 615 MHz and up > indicated artifacts that proved to be unstable in 3D rendering and testing out that any clock frequency past the 580 MHz mark didnt improve the 3D score for the overclock performance Ratio.

Overall Review: All and all i would definately recommend this product to anyone looking for a Mid Range Highend Card, Per on a budget, or just as a card that can successfully play just about any game out there on either 4x AA 8x AF, or 8Sx AA and 16Qx AF and not have a slowdown or performance degredation. The Rebate came in quickly and EVGA Rocks. Customer Service on anything you could imagine, as EVGA is throughly trained in the field that they are in. 10 out of 10 on all sides. Besure to register and get your very own LLT with EVGA.

Pros: FAST stock, FASTER overclocked! Fairly cool (and heatsink covers RAM which most do not!), reliable, overclocks like mad, VERY good price... list goes on

Cons: Can be a bit noisey on 3D mode, but fan's RPMs drop during regular usage so its really not a problem. Temps will seem higher than others simply because active ram cooling raises GPU temps a bit, but will give better RAM overclocks. Finally, make sure you have a good power supply for this. I ran this on a 12amp (250 watt) PSU at first, no problems... But didnt OC it or really push it hard until the new PSU was bought (450watt)

Overall Review: this is basically a 7900gtx with 20 pipes instead of 24 (they are there, but not connected... dont think there is a way to get them) and the ram voltage is dropped and ram is underclocked. This card should be GPU=450Mhz, but eVGA puts it out as 500Mhz. Using auto overclocking with coolbits, it went to 588Mhz! I havnt dug into manual clocking much, but I have seen many over 600Mhz with NO problem (up to 680Mhz even!). Ram can be clocked up too, and put on a vmod and cool it the best you can, you wont find ANY card that will beat this for the money. This card was bought for my brother, but I might end up wanting one now...

Pros: Cheap! $105 after rebate?! This thing is cheaper right now than most 7600 series cards! Significant increase over standard clocked Geforce 7600GT. Aftermarket cooler, while not elaborate, covers more of the memory chips and does make a difference.

Cons: Some might consider Dx-9 and shader model 3.0 obsolete now that SX-10/SM 4.0 are out, but unless you have vista, it doesn't matter

Pros: This card is awesome! Upgraded from a 7600gs which was a huge improvement. Runs HL2 everything high except AA, always 80+ FPS. Not too power hungry like other cards out there. Runs fine on a 450w psu w/ 16 amps on 12v rail. Idles at around 46C and load 49C. Fan only speeds up under load, but is barely noticeable.

Cons: None at all!

Overall Review: nVidia > ATI :)

Pros: Price-to-performance ratio, qiuet, PCI-E, price itself, height

Cons: Its not DX10, heatsink face was not lapped as well as could be.

Overall Review: Bought this card to hold me over on my new Core 2 Duo setup until DX10 hits mainstream. The overall performance of this card is outstanding for the price. Ive ran FEAR with almost every setting cranked at 1280X1024 and maintain 50-60fps. Playing WoW at 1680X1050 with everything cranked I never drop below 60fps. The heatsink face was kind of rough so I lapped it and was able to drop temps about 5C. Overall a very wothwhile investment in my opinion, I would certainly reccommend this product!
