Pros: I assume it will work at least as good as my 9800gtx+, same XFX manufacturer, when I get around to swapping motherboards.
Cons: Plastic case covers both sides unlike my 9800gtx+. The bottom DVI connector has a plastic cover for the metal housing. That cover prevents the board from seating in a Tyan S2892D motherboard. A metal capacitor blocks the board from fully seating. The XFX 9800gtx did not have that cover and it fit. When I put the board in a X4 electrical slot (S2892 has a second x16 form but only x4 electrical), it was not recognized as a CUDA device. Supposidly it should have worked, but at a reduced bandwidth. It did power up both displays, but I need the CUDA and that was not working.
Overall Review: A dremmel could be used to remove the plastic cover for the DVI connector, but would void the warranty.
