EVGA GeForce GTX 260 DirectX 10 896-P3-1260-AR 896MB 448-Bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Pros: First the card, What can I say that hasn't already been said about this card. Yes its big but you get big performance from it. I didn't bother overclocking since it runs LOTRO at 1600x1200 with 8x AA at 62FPS consistently. Second, Newegg customer service is the best. I had the same $40 rebate snafu that others have reported. When you type in the offer code into the worldwiderebates.com web site, the purchase dates on the form are only valid from 11/1 to 11/4 not 11/1 to 11/30 as listed. I called wwrebates and guess what?, no answer, *click*. I opened a chat window to Newegg customer service and Jeffrey promptly refunded $40 to my credit card. It took less than 5 minutes. No wonder I've been a Newegg customer since last century!

Cons: worldwiderebates. 'nuff said.

Overall Review: The card fits nicely in an Antec 900 case but does block two of the drive bays in the upper drive mounting. If you want to install more than 4 drives you'll need a different case. 50C idle, 65C loaded.

Pros: Runs everything I throw at it beautifully. Fallout 3, Crysis, Bioshock etc. etc. Overclocks very easily with EVGA Precision. Customer Service and warranty are amazing. Guy below with rebate problem, just call and they will take care of you. Service is amazing.

Cons: None so far and even if one comes up, im sure EVGA Customer Service will take care of it.

Overall Review: Think of it more like you are paying $200 for an incredible lifetime warranty, technical support and customer service and getting a free video card. :D

Pros: Easy to install on Vista 64. Default drivers installed nicely and the NVIDIA auto driver detect picked up the card without a hitch. --Playing LOTRO and FALL OUT 3 on the highest settings for the 1st time...what a difference!

Cons: Like the other comments, the think is rather long. Almost double the length of my other video cards and it takes up 2 slots - the actual PCI slot for the card and the slot next to it for the fan/cooling chamber.

Overall Review: This is a nice card, runs well and is priced really well.

Pros: I bought this particular gtx 260 because EVGA is a very well favored company.. Unfortunately I didn't fare so well.

Cons: Missing two of the adapters. Loud high pitched buzz fluctuates with certain games/apps.. Like everyone has said, it is very large. Make sure it's going to fit in your case and not cover any connectors on your motherboard that you may need. Factory clock speeds were different than specs listing.. Played Farcry 2 for about 10 minutes before the screen went blank/system locked..

Overall Review: I understand that pretty much any company will produce duds on occasion, I just had some bad luck.. This review is based on my particular experience.

Pros: Laughs at any game I throw at it. Plays Far Cry 2 at max settings like it's bored and looking for work.

Cons: Huge. Does not come with a rope to tie it down. May hurt small children if it falls on them.

Overall Review: I do not think that the term "video card" is an adequate description of this thing. It is not a card at all. It may have cards inside but there is nothing about this device that outwardly resembles a card. It weighs about 4 pounds I'd say. I'll have this VIDEO BRICK for many years.

Pros: Definitely the best card I ever worked with. With clocks not too far off of the gtx 280, it's definitely a bargain. I can easily play any game on the market right now on max settings. What surprised me was the ability to run on such a low wattage. You can easily take advantage of all the capabilities of this card off a 500 watt power supply, whereas a 600+ supply would be needed to safely run the 280. This card runs uber-cool too for me in my Antec 900 case. The huge fan as well as enclosed heatsink are great additions. Not to mention that the EVGA included clocking tools allow you to manually adjust the clock and fan speeds with extreme ease. The art on the card itself is a great changeup to some sort of mythical flame dragon or something dumb like that. The card looks very cool inside my case

Cons: The only con I have, as everyone else said, was that its HUGE. Don't underestimate the size of this card. I have an antec 900 case, which I consider to be a huge case in and of itself, and it cleared the HDD cage by half an inch. I also had to rearrange a bunch of wires to fit the card in. But its only a minor gripe because once you get it into position, its in there for good.

Overall Review: One more thing is to make sure that you have 2 six-pin plugs from your powersupply readily available. It would be a shame to not be able to take advantage of giving it the power it needs due to poor organization of the wires. All in all, this is a great card and you should definitely consider buying this card. After rebates, you can expect to pay around $200 for this beast, and its worth every penny. You will not be disapointed.

Pros: Awesome card. Evga is a great company, their warranty is the only one that I have ever seen that will cover overclocking. This means that if you overclock you card and it dies your card is still covered. I managed to overclock mine better than the for the win card, saving me a ton of $$. The card runs great and is pretty quiet in my system. It has never had to increase its fan speed past 50%.

Cons: It is large, but all cards of this calibur are. Make sure it will fit in your case before buying, and remember to make sure it wont interfere with your harddrives. Also, I had an issue with my power supply. I had to use a 6 pin connection that was included and also a modular 6 pin to get it running. Using the 2 6 pins that were attached to my PSU didnt cut it because they were on the same rail. Something to think about.

Overall Review: Yes this will fit in the Antec 900 case. Evga 750i motherboard, Q9450 OC to 3.5 ghz, 4 gb ddr2 1066 G.skill ram, 500 gig 7500 rps hd, tuniq tower cpu cooler (AWESOME).

Pros: Card worked great right off the bat. I had some other computer issues, but the card wasn't one of them. It works great for all my games. Unfortunately I haven't had anything brand new to run it through the paces like Crysis or COD4. If it's any consolation, it runs TF2, HL2: Ep 2, and Hellgate on max settings at 60 FPS without any OC needed. I do feel compelled to turn the fan speed up to keep it sitting at around 42-48C under load but it still runs very cool comparitively. OC Precision Utility works great and is really easy to use. I benchmarked it at 13,800 using 3D Mark. I would definitely recommend this card to anyone and the price is great too. Kudos, EVGA!

Cons: The only con I have, is that my card doesn't always go in to 2D Mode (low power mode). Most likely something on my end but it isn't that big of a deal.

Overall Review: As I'm sure everyone else has stated, the card is pretty big. I'm using an Antec Twelve Hundred case and it fits great with room to spare. I'm rather interested to see how well it cools in SLI. It seems like a snug fight to the other. At the price it is listed I might consider SLI, but that will be at a time when I play more current games.
