Pros: This card is a steal and it comes with Call of Duty 4. I haven't had any problems whatsoever. I've yet to test it with Crysis, but I've been able to play other recently released games with the settings all the way up without slowdown.
Cons: It's not as fast as the upper end card and you don't get as much onboard memory, but you end up getting much more than you pay for with this card.
Overall Review: Upgraded from a 6800GT and the difference in performance is huge. Granted it's a newer card, but I got it for half the price.
Pros: Standard and well documented install process made this a no brainer. Driver updates were a couple of clicks and done.
Cons: None so far.
Overall Review: All in all this has been a good buy. Video has been very good with the few games I play. No lag noticed due to video card, and a couple of graphics test showed 119 fps while running a "high load simulation".
Pros: NewEgg is ALWAYS fantastic. They ship fast. I should have RMAed the card with them.
Cons: The fan is loud. If you put in a support ticket they will tell you what fans work with their card that aren't loud. Kind of a cop out I think. But the worst part is their service. I had to send the card for an issue. Once they got it they waited three days to diagnose the card. Once they diagnosed it as bad it has been four days and they have not sent a replacement.
Overall Review: I submitted a review here previously. It seems to be gone and I'm not sure why. I got a manufacturer response to my review where they said to let them know the ticketnumber and they would investigate. I did and it's been over a day and two emails sent with no response.
Pros: better than my onboard GeForce 6150LE. I can even run this card with Crysis on Very high. But it stutters at times. Check other thoats about that. Fast and great. Don't really see the problem people are complaining about the loud fan. It's not really loud at all. Sure it runs at 100% full time and you can't change it with Riva tuner. But to be honest I don't even think about it 98% of the time. And I leave my pc on 24/7.
Cons: Not an 8800GT. Did come with higher clock like the eVGA card. But I got it when it came with CoD4. that is the only reason I had bought it. Wish eVGA offered something like that.
Overall Review: I can't overclock it. My card is bottlednecked by a AMD Athlon 3800+. Needs 5000+ to not be or better. But it would probably be alot better once I replace this processor with a Intel Q9300 or Q9550.
Pros:
runs fear, bioshock, cod4 all on high with all effects turned up. i yet have to test out crysis, but i assume that i wont be running that on high.
i like the S-vid ouput. i hook it up to my tv and watch episodes of scrubs off my hard disk while waiting on downloads and updates.
Cons:
fan is loud. either get a jumper from XFX support, buy a VGA cooler, or go with a different card all together.
i dont know what the problem is, but my card is mounted upside down. i looked at it from all other angles, and theres no other way for it to be installed. the fan shoots straight down at my bottom mounted PSU. the hot air gets trapped down there
Overall Review: My build: Antec 900 Chassis, Antec NeoPower 650W ATX12V/EPS12V PSU, Biostar TA770 AMD Motherboard, AMD Athalon 64X2 4800 2.5GHZ, (2) Seagate Barracuda 160GB SATA 3.0gb/s, G.Skill 2GB (2x1gb), XFX GeForce 8800GS 384MB 192BIT, 240pin DDR2 800, Sony Optiarc IDE DVD-ROM, LITE-ON 20x IDE DVD Burner
Pros: Easy setup, great overall.
Cons: Runs a little hot; but EVGA's Precision overclocker tool took care of that! cranked up the fan and it stays relatively cool.
Overall Review: Solid card.
Pros: Worked right away, the power adapters DID work. Came with Call of Duty 4 which is pretty sweet and overclocks pretty good. Ive only played BF2, COD4, FEAR, Bioshock, and Need for speed Carbon and all on High
Cons: It was weird, when it first fired up the fan was completely silent, but the second time i turned it on it become more loud but it doesnt bother me. Im not gonna get the adapter from XFX or anything, If not playing games, Im listening to music or vidoes so all in all it doesnt bother me.
Overall Review:
This card is proably being bottlenecked by my CPU (Athlon 64 LE -1600) considering this, it still plays the metioned games on high @ 1024x786 (because of my monitor) and very smoothly, would run smoother if I had a bombing dual core!
System: Abit AN52, Athlon 64, 2GB RAm, 8800GS
