Great Card
Pros: The card runs at about 27c idle and 40c-50c during games. The fans are almost whisper quiet even during games. It's one of the reasons I brought this card as it was reviewed to be incredible quiet. I only have a 1366x768 monitor, but I did that intentionally for the larger pixel/text size and the lower taxing on the video card. So far it runs the Witcher 2, Dragon Age 2, Borderlands 2, and Diablo 2 all at 60 FPS on high/ultra settings. This card was meant for 1080p so that would probably be a better test. I may hook it up to my TV via HDMI at some point to see how the FPS is at that resolution.
Cons: The card is fairly long. I don't have an issue with it as my case is huge, but some people might. The heatsink in particular takes up a lot of space, but seems to do a great job of keeping the card cool without the fan needing to spin at a high RPM speed.
Overall Review: This is a good card if you want something that is quiet, but still can give you pretty good performance in games.
