Pros: Upgrading from an HD2900 XT it was a big difference. Yes I know the new 5800 is coming out, but this is a current generation power house for a low end price. It's about as loud as my 2900, and runs at least 2x the frame rate in DX10 games (like Farcry 2 dx10, 50fps with ultra settings at 1920x1200, compaired to 19fps on the 2900)
Cons: none
Overall Review: with the 5800 now out those wanting the first two in the door to dx11 might want to wait for those to drive price down. But at around $130 price point, to get a 1gb card that smokes dx10 you can't beat it with a stick (beating things with a stick is a bad idea anyway)
