Pros: Pretty Fast and not to expensive TV Out Dual DVI
Cons: Only comes with one DVI->VGA dongle (Not a big deal for me, could be for someone)
Overall Review: This is my first real video card, and I love it. Previously I was running on Intel Integrated Graphics. I went from playing doom 3 on lowest to playing on high graphics. Plus I got to play Quake 4, and I can finnaly run BF2. Before it refused to run at all. Too bad they changed the cooler, the one in the pic looks kind of cool. The new one is a little smaller, and is just red, with some writing on it. If you look at powercolor's page, you can see a picture of the new one.
