Pros: Bought this to replace my HIS 4870 512MB and with the current release drivers, this 6970 beats my 4870 by a fair margin. Also, the card has wonderful power and throttle management!

Cons: Cooler could have been a bit better. But nothing to cry over. I keep the fan at 45%.

Overall Review: With the same settings between the 4870 and 6970 the framerates (drivers are 10.11) are: Counter-Strike: Source: 43% increase. Shattered Horizon: 270% increase. Crysis Warhead: 93% increase. Left 4 Dead 2: 32% increase. S.T.A.L.K.E.R.: Call Of Pripyat: 200% increase. Worth it? Yep. My CPU: Q6600 OCed to 2.7Ghz.

Pros: -The board does indeed work as it should. -System is OCed to 4.1GHz for the CPU and 2400MHz for the RAM. -Overclocking/XMP profiles DO work with a little work (see Cons)

Cons: Only reason I did not give 5 eggs, you have to nurture this board to get it to OC. 1) Update the BIOS to F6, power off. 2) UNPLUG ALL SSD/HDD/PCIE storage devices. This is the trick. 3) Overclock/enable the XMP profiles. 4) Save the settings, reboot. 5) Let the system say there are no bootable drives. 6) Turn off the system. 7) Plug the drives back in. 8) Be happy. Took hours of hate to get this board to OC. It would boot to black screens (never finishing posting), or instantly fail to boot normally. Hope this helps others!

Overall Review: Why this has to be done to OC is beyond me. Otherwise, you just want to return the board (or use it for target practice!)

Pros: I purchased this drive to replace the 40GB 2MB cache Seagate drive in my PS3 and wow. The performance gains on copying and game installation is quite noticeable. Go for this drive!

Cons: None! Fast, quiet, cool and can handle the PS3's heavy HDD access.

Overall Review: none

Pros: 1) Runs Vista [32] just fine. 2) Handles the 5400 Black 3) Everything works perfect. 4) Boot time: 25 sec.

Cons: BIOS is upgradeable by floppy only. :( I had to go digging.

Overall Review: Does not randomly restart like the previous Gigabyte board.

Pros: A wonderful card! I had STALKER peak at 560fps (1280x1024x32) while playing at the power plant, with an average of 70fps. Crysis runs an average of 36fps on "Very High" and Oblivion with 16x AF and 8x AA runs at a smooth 70-80 outside (Waterfront) and 200fps inside (Bravil)! No skipping while running around! Great card!

Cons: Hot. I repasted the heatsink and sped the fan up to 45%. Before the fan was running at 23% and at 80C on the desktop! At 45%, the temp is 50C with game play of 62C. This is in a room that stays 22C.

Overall Review: Other then the temp, the card is wonderful! This thing out-performs my 8600GTS OC by miles. It peaked STALKER at 121fps... this peaks at 560fps. Boom.

Pros: ...a wonderful product! Fast read/write, low noise and cool running.

Cons: None so far. And probably never will be.

Overall Review: I like these guys...WD!
