Pros: Like most NVIDIA products, this card is very well supported on Linux platforms. I'm running dual 1440x900 monitors with the full suite of 3D desktop effects enabled, flash video running, and the quality settings turned up. So far, this card has ran everything without a single hitch.

Cons: Like many other users, I got this really weird noise when I first fired up my computer, but it quieted down after a minute. Even then, I can still barely hear it over my case and PSU fans. My system is a little quieter than most, so this would probably be a big deal only if you already have a very quiet system.

Overall Review: This card also works quite well in Vista, but I wanted to write something for those Linux users out there :)

Pros: You know, I am certain it is your Cases' fault it crashed, not the Cards, high end cards run hot, if you drop this card in a Dell case, it would crash it no prob due to lack of air flow, you probably didnt even attempt to route wires in the case properly. Dont rate a GREAT product poorly, just becuase you should have searched further into why it got so hott.

Cons: none

Overall Review: none

Pros: I had never heard of Zotac but the price was good so I took a chance on this card and put it in my Dell Inspiron. I had a spare Antec 480W power supply laying around and installed that as well. It went up in smoke! Not sure why. I then upgraded to an Antec 650W and have had no problems. I had planned on upgrading cooling but I have had zero problems with over heating running COD World at War max settings.

Cons: I lost my integrated graphics and ended up having to install a network card after not being able to figure it out. I don't think it had anything to do with the card but I'm not sure what happened.

Overall Review: Card is high quality and has great cooling.

Pros: i would have to agree. I own 3 zotacs a 9800GTX, 9800gtx+(rev 1), 9800gtx+ that is basicaly this card before the 250 branding. I run the 2 gtx+ cards in a 900 case over clocked to 801gpu 202shader 2400mem with the fans at 60% these dont run over 47c in my house with ambient temps in the mid 70s.

Cons: The 9800gtx runs the same clocks only 8 deg hotter due to the larger die gpu. If you bought a power supply then you needed it and its not wasted cause anything else you buy that is newer is going to need it also. these Zotacs are a great card dont fear them.

Overall Review: phenom II x3 720 2.8ghz(clocked to 3.4) OCZ Platinum DDR2-800(clocked 1100)OCZ mem cooler Foxconn Destroyer 780 SLI motherboard 2xZotac 9800 GTX+ OCZ 700 watt power supply

Pros: none

Cons: Ran my games smooth for 10 secs then crashed my system the card made my system temps way toooo high and caused my system to crash. I had to upgrade my PSU to even get this card to work and after I did i was mad from the performance of the card so I had to sell the card and lost like 50 60 bucks and i'm stuck with a great PSU that i'm not taking advantage of

Overall Review: I had the 512mb version of this card

Pros: Well - I wasn't even able to use it because it was a bad card... So I am going to the store again Sunday to pick up another one... From Reviews it seems great... I'll write another review on Sunday when I get it. If its good.... I'll be ordering another one to add to my system from Newegg this time :)

Cons: - Loud - Very Large [But Its A Gaming Card - It's Supposed To Be Large]
