MSI GeForce GTX 260 DirectX 10 N260GTX-T2D896 OC 896MB 448-Bit GDDR3 PCI Express 2.0 x16 HDCP Ready SLI Support Video Card

Pros: Coming from an EVGA 8600 GT 256MB card, I obviously see an extremely large increase of performance. I used to be able to run Crysis on medium at 1024x768 and get somewhat good frames. Now I can run it at my native res (1280x1024) with everything maxed out, even the AA and it runs great, no lag. Gears of War, Far Cry 2, Halo 2 PC, and Fallout 3 all share the same story. It came overclocked.

Cons: Absolutley none, love this card.

Overall Review: Size was not an issue although it was slightly bigger than I imagined. And despite having an older motherboard with PCI-E 1.0 I still get excellent results from this card. And I of course have to again thank Newegg for sending me this wonderful card.

Pros: extremely powerful GPU, The price was 250 after rebate when i got them, a very noticeable upgrade from 8800GTS, 448bit membus, 896 megs ram more than enough. Very well built, and i like the new totally enclosed heatsink design.

Cons: Well, the fans at 100% do have a very hair dryer like sound to them, but hopefully some aftermarket coolers come out or if your gonna run water cooling dont even sweat it. I just know that in 6 months they will release a 55nm version, i just know it then i will kick myself.

Overall Review: I got 2 of these running in SLi and i can tell 100% positively no lying, that on my e8400 at 4.0ghz and at 1680x1050 with absolutely no overclocking yet, In crysis with EVERYTHING set to VERY HIGH, with no AA (i dont really ever notice the "jaggies") i get a constant and steady 40ish framerate most of the time above. i looked and looked for benchmarks that would relate to how i play games, and im bettin alot of you play at the same settings i do. Overall im very happy and impressed.

Pros: Far Cry 2 using Short Ranch all Highest settings 1440x900 AAx0 = 33-71f/s Avg 41f/s 1440x900 AAx8 = 21-43f/s Avg 27f/s 1680x1050 AAx0 = 30-61f/s Avg 38f/s 1680x1050 AAx8 = 18-33f/s Avg 23f/s Crysis with everything on High, except Shadows are medium, usually gets about 34f/s. Starcraft looks about the same... Overall, vast improvement over 8600 GTS. I was pulling 25f/s at 1280x800 at low

Cons: FC2 did alot better with DX 10 but it crashed during actual play. Vista = stress.

Overall Review: 9850 BE, GTX 260, 4gb 1066MHz, (all at stock speeds for this review) 32bit XP Directx 9. For the short time I had Vista 32bit Directx 10 was better for FC2 but not for Crysis to the same extent it was for FC2

Pros: More Memory, More Process Cores for Shaders, PhysX, Rear Exhaust, Runs Cooloer than 8800GT, and it Throttles down when not active to save power.

Cons: Extra Long 10 inches (an inch longer than 8800GT)

Overall Review: Got 2 very nice looking cards completely covered on both sides. They OC's well 750GPU/1500Shaders/1200Mem (or 2400MHz Mem). Using these clock spds I Played Cysis at Very High 1920x1080 2xAA and Vsync for an hour Cards hit 59-60c fans on 70%, Got between 27-60 FPS Mainly ran between 35-45 The Factory OC speeds are actually 620GPU/1080Mem (or 2160Mhz Mem) what is on the specs page are the standard clock spds. Getting them to fit. Antec 900 case has 6 drive slot s using 1,4,5, & 6. The Card fit between 1 & 4. The gap between pwr connecters is just enough to reach from slot 1 to 4 but VGA cards were in the way so had to slide them out a little to give direct path for pwr cable. Had to remove stand off for PWR,Reset,& HDD connecters, then had to bend them over some so 2nd VGA card would seat on My MSI P7N Dmd MB Call of Juarez DX 10 benchmark Settings 1920x1080 res 2048x2048 shadowmap High shaders MSAA x2 Avg Spd 50 at factory OC 67 at my OC With 2 8800GT 34 at s

Pros: Great Card. Best Ive ever had, Got the game with it and it runs everything on max and its just great. I have even Overclocked it even more and Runs around 38 C idle and maxed around 54 C

Cons: None

Overall Review: Why do people have to give the card a bad rating . I understand if you didnt get the game nor rebate, for those who sent the rebate in. if the card runs perfect and you didnt get the game then still why give it a bad rating .

Pros: I really do like this Video Card

Cons: The Rebate is a JOKE , this is the 2nd time MSI rejected a rebate even though there was NOTHING more i could do to get the rebate. -1 egg for this

Overall Review: Get the card for the dollar amount shown and forget ever getting any rebate save yourself time and effort on that one.

Pros: Ive had this card for awhile now, And its fantastic . Run Crysis at Maxed settings at Resolution of 1650-1080 and it stays around 54-60 C at load. My Cards Oced even more to 682/1188-2376/1425 very stable and fits in a Antec 900 perfectly for me.

Cons: None

Overall Review: When people say there not happy with the product, Ok I understand when its good and you just dont want it anymore and it works fine why give it a bad rating? Really this is a Fantastic card, If you just dont like it then hay, Do some research before you even buy it.

Pros: price - $200 after rebate! Should be fast; haven't finished my new build yet.

Cons: In case you haven't noticed from other comments, this thing is HUGE! Too big in fact for my Thermaltake Tsunami Dream case. I am going to have to cut a notch im the aluminum hard drive cage to clear the card, which isn't that big of a deal, but the placement of the card on my Asus P5Q Pro means i am actually going to lose the use of 3 of the 5 hard drive slots, so there goes my plan of using my Raptor as a boot drive and dual WD 640gb drives in a RAID 0/1 configuration, unless i can determine a way to squeeze in another hard drive somewhere.
