Comments: Trying to play Doom3/Quake 4 on my Radeon 9600 has been extremely frustrating. I wasn't after triple-digit bragging-rights framerates, but rather, a reasonably priced card that wouldn't surrender in the middle of my game. This XFX 6600 card is EXACTLY the card I was looking for. I just popped this gem into my aging AGP4X system, and boom: 1024x768x32/High Settings in Quake 4. No overclocking, no tweaking, no fuss, and not a whole lot of cash. Newegg's exceptional service is a given with me, and I wouldn't shop anywhere else (well, I did once, and man, did I regret it...serves me right.) If you're looking to play the latest games decently on even an old AGP4X system like mine, then this card will definitely do the trick, and still leave enough money in your wallet to take the wife and kids out to dinner to make up for the hours of time you spend away from them gaming. Have fun!

Comments: Just upgraded from a Geforce 5200. This card works great at high settings for half-life 2, doom 3. Major complaint is shipping. UPS sucks. 3-day shipping turned out to be 5 days. Tracking also was awful - They had my porduct listed as "delivered" 3 hours before they got to my home, and worse, just left the package sitting on the doorstep without ringing the bell to have me sign for it. Please go back to FedEX!!!

Pros: Stable, clean graphics, very good shading, solid performer.

Cons: Moderate heat production under heavy load. Bit of a power load.

Overall Review: I received this card this morning and immediately put it under heavy stress testing. After 6 hours the graphics were sharp and clear at 1600x1280/32bit/115hz unsynced. No errors, no shading problems at all. Overall, the card seems to be a very good performer. I will update this after 30 days to give an idea of longevity. The card is used in a developer box, dual opteron 4gb scsi raid 5 on a high end gaming project under development.

Pros: I play Flight Simulator 2004 and IL2 + Pacific Fighters. Now Pacific Fighters calls for some heavy graphic requirements. I must say I am very impressed at how this card handles the game with high settings and multiple players online. The graphics are crisp and the card actually has a good cooling system. If you’re on a budget or stuck with an older machine that can only handle agp cards with a 250 watt power supply. This is for you. Yes the card still has to be linked to the power supply to run but you don’t need a 300watt power supply like you would for a 6600GT model. My previous card was a Geforce 4 ti 4600 128mb card pushing 30 to 40 frames with medium settings. I now push 60 to 80 frames using high settings. Remember, high frame rates = better graphics and less freezes/pauses. As for NewEgg - I have zero complaints, keep up the great work.

Cons: None that I can find.

Overall Review: Well, you know how you have those 4 pin plugs that come out of the power supply box to feed your hard drive, cd-rom etc. Most pc’s have extra plugs that can be used as you do need it for this card. However, XFX ( the makers of this card) do not supply you and extension for the plug to make it longer if needed. If your plug can’t reach the card, run to a PC repair shop and pick one up for $5.00.

Pros: This card worked great right out of the box. I'm running BF2 on Med-High settings @ 1024X768. This replaced my xfx5200, wow what a difference. I've had it installed for 2 months with no problems at all.

Cons: Will run BF2 on high with some lag but definitely playable with a couple of settings set to Med.

Overall Review: My system: Dell 4600 P4 @ 2.4ghz w/1Gig pc2700.

Pros: Very Amazed. At first i didn't expect this to work on my computer with a 300 watt power supply. Yet I connect it and its been working fine with BF2. I still have yet to see how it will work in the long run.

Cons: None so far.

Overall Review: I guess I got lucky with my 300 Watt power supply, reading reviews that its a power load.

Pros: It was easy to install, user friendly, and worked like a dream right out of the box. I upgraded from an ATI 9600 SE (128MB) so there was a noticeable increase in preformance. The fan added a bit of noise to my generally quiet PC, but nothing incredably noticeable. Didn't have any power issues (the connector for this card should be right on your power supply).

Cons: None so far

Overall Review: Newegg has again delieverd with excellent customer service and timeliness. I was nervous about getting an XFX card at first, as I had never purchased one before, but this card has exceeded expectations, and XFX is definatly being added to my "reccomended" list.

Pros: This card works great on my system, but I have some questions since it seems to be a bit of a power load.

Cons: How large of a power supply should I upgrade to, 500 or so? Also, where could I get a supplemental power connector for the card...or are those just the extra connector pins from the power supply? Anyone know?

Overall Review: This card rocks though, just make sure you have enough power!
