XFX GeForce 6800XT DirectX 9 PVT42KUDE3 256MB 256-Bit GDDR3 AGP 4X/8X Video Card

Pros: This card has brought new life to an older machine. Moved from a GForce 4 420. I've been playing Dawn of War, BF Vietnam, Guild Wars, & Doom 3. All perform great. My PS is only 300watts and I've had no power problems. It looks cool and fit in the system perfectly.

Cons: Not much to the manual. Basiclly, open your system, install the card, and load the drivers.

Overall Review: I ordered it with the basic 3 day shipping at 1:30pm on a Monday and UPS had it at my door by 1pm on Tuesday. Can't beat that at all. It made the trip from Tenn. to Louisiana in 24hrs. I've purchased from Newegg before and will do so again because of service like this. I would definantly recommend Newegg and this card to any one.

Pros: Lets see It runs at great speeds and cooling is not a problem with its stock fan. 256MB memory for the card is a great size plus its GDDR3 with 256 bit. And I have a 430 PSU and it runs great so dont believe everything about peoples stories.Also I bought this card cause my old 6800 died. I could only run things on med-high with that card but with this one all HIGH!!! and 4x AA. GEEAT

Cons: The only bad thing is that i couldnt unlock all the pipelines. I was able to get 12pp 5vp. But I wanted to get 16pp 6vp. Anyways thats not bad at all cause I would probably get artifacts if I was able to do that.

Overall Review: If you install the lastest Nvidia drivers then you can get that nice control panel and set the clocking rate to automatic which is really nice.

Pros: May not be the best card made right now, but for older systems like mine this is the best bang for the buck on AGP PERIOD. Was a bit skeptical about going with XFX because i havent bought from them, but installation went without a hitch idles at 48* F Overall performance was not a dramatic increase over the 6600gt, as far as FPS goes, but image quality was a huge improvement.

Cons: none yet.. it is a bit larger than my 6600gt but not a problem.

Overall Review: comes with a pdf on overclocking, tho i dont care for that. My cd had 4 free games included :o) My fav games: Nascar Racing 2003 FPS 159 in D3D in testing and rFactor 59 FPS in testing with everything on max in both games

Pros: The card runs everything well when it has enough power. It needs at minimum 500 watt psu for it to run properly. My system kept crashing and corrupting drivers for the first 3 days till I figured out finally what was wrong. My 430 just didn't have the oomph for it to work well.

Cons: Item description is misleading. It says a min of 300 watt but you really do need far more. The box itself says it requires at minimum 500.

Overall Review: Newegg is fast and has always been great. They just really need to update this product description so other people don't have to turn around and order a new psu at a different time.

Pros: Fast, stays cool, quite, looks cool, runs games very well. BF2 runs well at mid to high settings, prey runs maxed out very well, so does half-life 2. The newer gamesrun very good on this card. It's just a great card.

Cons: Well, it's big.....um...it's not a 7800.....

Overall Review: Everyone says you need a 500 watt power supply for this card to work but i've got a 300W one and it works great, I've had no stability issues so far.

Pros: AMD 2800+ 2.1 GHZ 1.5 Gigs of Memory and so far plays HL2 on Max settings flawlessly, haven't had a chance to test it out on anything else yet but HL2 used to lag like crazy now I can spin on a dime np and the reflections are insane!! I wish i had gone with this to begin with, huge upgrade over an FX 5500

Cons: I've only had it for 1 day but like the other reviews have stated it runs really hot, I've got a 430w psu and my pc smelled like some electrical parts were frying, however after 3 hours the smell did die down (my psu or mobo would have burned out if it was frying in that time) but I have a feeling my psu is being taxed and will probably burn out, I'm playing it safe and going with a 500w supply. I've got 2 dvd drives, 2 hard drives, sound card, floppy in addition to the video card so I'm sure my system is taxed

Overall Review: Great price and if you are running agp and looking for something to get you by until the transition over to pci, this should last you. I plan on running it for at least 2 years.

Pros: Although this video card still uses the older 8X AGP standard it is still capable of excellent framerates and great gaming quality. This card paired up with an Athlon 3200 and 2048MB of PC3200 scored 50,088 on Aquamark 3. This card is the best value for dollar spent on any AGP upgrade. The 7800 will beat it, but at a premium price. If you're looking for that last GPU upgrade before going to PCI-e then this card is where it's at. You can buy a barebones PCI-e for what most vendors are charging for the 7800 AGP, so I wouldn't reccomend anything more expensive than this card.

Cons: I can't really find any faults with the card. It's layout and performance are wonderful. If I had to mention anything close to a con it would be the massive power requirements. This card needs lots of pushaline or it isn't going to do anything but blue-screen. But, that's the cost of performance. Speed is relative to money..... how fast can you afford to go?

Overall Review: Newegg.com suggests a minimum of a 300 WATT PSU to run this card. It will let it run very minor application, but causes cheap PSU's to go belly up when you stomp on the gas. I would reccomend nothing less than a very good 400 WATT PSU; 500 WATT if you can afford it. Having a superb quality motherboard and PSU will certainly help this card achieve it's potential.

Pros: Bought this to replace an expired ATI 9600. Plays WoW at the highest settings at 1440x900 with no problems at all. Installed in a midi-tower case. I had no problems with the fit despite what some folks have reported. It is a little longer that the average graphics card though. I don't notice the fan as being particularly loud although my system isn't the quietest. Runs at 65C most of the time and peaks to around 72C when playing Warcraft.

Cons: Nothing that bothers me at the moment.

Overall Review: The box now states that a 500W PSU is required. I have a 400W (I figured I'd get a more powerful one if needed) PSU and 3 hard drives, 2 optical drives and 8 USB ports. I've had no problem with power at all. This card is a little expensive compared with PCI-E cards of similar capability but in the I.T. world, upgrading obselete equipment can be pricey.
