GREAT VID CARD FOR THE BUCK
Pros: Fantastic price for a 6970. Less than 1/2 of what I paid for my other 6970. Installed latest CCC and drivers and results were horrible. Installed CCC 13.4 and performs fantastic.
Cons: As stated received vid card and installed latest CCC and Ouch what a pixel and blocking night mare. I uninstalled and reinstalled CCC 13.4 with drivers and performs perfect. For some reason the newer CCC is not compatible with this card, Idle temps are 37C and you will not need a space heater while gaming in winter months. I would check your drivers before condemning the video card. Enjoy.
Overall Review: Well Super Egg Saver Shipping speaks for it self. If you are in a hurry for your item than do not go this route.
DOA
Pros: NONE
Cons: BSOD and 956 memory errors with mem86+ in a 6 minute test. 2 out of 3 sets DOA. Come on OCZ whats going on? I must wait for another Newegg RMA to be processed for replacement. Voltage set to specs 2.1 volts and read your bulletin board. Better quality control before they leave the factory. Test them before you ship them.
Overall Review: Newegg customer service has been great and hope they process this in a reasonable amount of time. Thanks Newegg that 1 egg is not for you. You get 5.
Nice Drive Software NEEDS Help
Pros: Had to do a complete reinstall of drive with Windows 7. Drive works pretty good but not a fast as my Sandisk SSD.
Cons: Recommended software from Samsung did not allow clone. Errored out at 99%. Tried several times without sucess. Required fresh OS install.
Overall Review: Slow shipping as usual with free shipping. Took 6 business days to receive. Mail innovations does not work and wish Newegg would realize that. Could have sent it first class mail and would have received in 3 business days.
NICE DRIVE
Pros: It reads, it writes it is fast and quiet. Real nice drive.
Cons: None
Overall Review: Purhased drive on Friday. Received on Tuesday. Packed well in bubble wrap. 5 Eggs for you Newegg.
Great Video Card
Pros: Performed a driver cleaner. Downloaded new updated drivers from Nvidia and installed without a hitch. Downloaded new version of MSI after Burner and fan runs on auto at 40%. Runs 32C at idle and up to 40C with game play. Windows 7 Ultimate WEI 7.4. For the price you can't go wrong.
Cons: None
Overall Review: Price is reasonable. Decent graphics card for price. Be sure to check your motherboard compatability. Some people chirp about being DOA but actual motherboard compatability. Not the quickest kid on the block but works fine for me. Go for it.
Works Great
Pros: Excellent solution if you require a dvi to hdmi output. Works well with no issues.
Cons: None
Overall Review: Newegg Free shipping needs a little help. Would have received part faster if mailed directly through USPS. Poor free shipping method.
