Pros: Numbers Speak. Had 8500GT 3DMark06 scrore was 3068. W/9600GT it was 11176. On Crysis bench w/8500GT on GPU Test 13 FPS. W/9600 55FPS. No other changes were made. I was on a budget so Im very happy.
Cons: Card is Very long. Like almost twice as long as my 8500GT. Make sure your case has room. Runs a little hot. It raised my MB Temp from 22C to 29C CPU From 25C to 30C. No changes so the card would have to be the cause of it.
Overall Review: Wish I had an SLI 16X2 board. May add fan since case has room for one more. RIG; WinXP Pro 64, Asus M2NE,6gigs DDR2800,AMD 64X2 3.2ghz, WD 7,200rpm HD,9600GT, SB Audigy2, Antech 900
