ASUS GeForce GTX 660 GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 Video Card

ASUS GeForce GTX 660 GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 Video Card
Cons:large, takes up the pci-e port it plugs into and the one directly below it.

Pros:Runs most new games on ultra graphics at 60-80 fpsEasy to overclockKeeps cool
Comment:
I have owned 2 these card for over a year now and i have no issues with anything. I have them SLI connected and they run unbelievably. The only thing that might be an issue is that the card takes up 2 slots so it covers the pci slot (or which ever you have under) but that goes for most medium to high end graphics cards now a days.

Pros:-works as advertise-never had issues-silent
Comment:
It is a really good gpu but don't expect to get more than what you pay for. It is in fact an old card and there is many new Nvidia cards on the market worth considering.

ASUS GeForce GTX 660 GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 Video Card
Cons:only con i can think of, and this may be my own fault is card runs hot im sitting here currently playing civilization 5 complete collection top notch and gpu diode is at 67c 153 f and gpu vram is at 89c 192f. I am not sure if aida is reading it wrong or not but i dont see how this card is that hot and aida says fan speed is at 55%, I just felt the card and it feels hot but not burning hot, i just wish there was an easy way to manually control the fan speed better or set it so it speeds up quicker earlier will include more in summary.

Pros:runs quietfastgood price i feel for benchmarks and considering i was planning to get a 750 ti instead i think the extra cash was worth itstable drivers (afterthought)
Comment:
nice card runs every game i play full tilt except i had an issue on arma 2 with the dayz mod i learned going to nvidia control panel and adjusting the power managment option for maximum performance helped. Friendly reminder to those who may be experiencing lag with some high end nvidia cards, anyways cards at 55% fan speed suppossidly runnig really hot. It is still quiet but what i observed about this card a lot is the fact it likes to turn up fan speed gradually, it starts at 10% speed then when it hits around 50c (im canadian so not familiar with farienheight off hand) it boosts it up ever so slighty the fan speed that is. Later on it keeps it below 50c as best as it can for a while, slowly boosting fan speed then overtime seems to stop caring about temperature and does its own thing. That is just my experience maybe im inexperienced, maybe im over thinking temperature wise. I hope this review is helpful, im still getting use to this video card and its features etc so far though im really satisfied with this purchase if this comes down in price i would not hesitate for a second to SLI these cards.

ASUS GeForce GTX 660 GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 Video Card
Cons:- None really- Odd bug in OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) keeps the fans throttled at 100%

Pros:- Works as advertised; amazing value- Zero config for Hackintosh
Comment:
I installed this in my Hackintosh. Kepler based cards do not require any configuration. Runs my gaming flawlessly on both Mac and Windows. NOTE: There is a bug OS X 10.9 (Mavericks) that causes the GPU fans to spin up and maintain 100% fan speed.Definitely one of the best Value-performance combinations available today.

Cons:A small big for my casing

Pros:ASUS, 1080P, 2x DVI, less than $200, quiet
Comment:
Always trusted Asus product. Running behind the scene quietly. Powerful enough for gaming and playing movie with duo monitors. 1080p + 2x dvi. A small tight for my casing, perhaps mine is small.

ASUS GeForce GTX 660 GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 Video Card
Cons:None thus far.

Pros:Plays all games at 1080p with High/Ultra settings at 30+ fps, all you will need for now.
Comment:
Runs cool and Quiet, looks sexy, made by ASUS, plays everything at 1080p on high/ultra at 30+ FPS (all you need really) I actually bought this for my HTPC I got it on sale for $179.99 and after MIR it was 159.99 and came with AC4 and Splinter Cell ($120 worth at the time) I was going to buy AC4 anyways so in my head I just subtracted another $60 from the $159.99 and it was like getting it for $100, couldn't be more happy even though its total overkill for my HTPC lolbut allows my brother to play LAN games with me now :)

ASUS GeForce GTX 660 GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 Video Card
Cons:Long card- a bit of work to squeeze in

Pros:Works oob with Hackintosh, good performance
Comment:
This was a significant bump up in graphics power. I drive two monitors (27" and 24") via DVI dual-link, and this works well and makes most games playable at full resolution (2560x1440). Easy enough to install and work with native Mac drivers with no fuss. I had to move 1 hard drive in my case (Antec atx case) to have enough room for this length-wise, and route a couple of cables around it.

Cons:None thus far.

Pros:Fairly quiet.Nice looking unit.
Comment:
This was purchased as an upgrade to a 5770, and what a difference, indeed! It runs much cooler than the 5770 and is fairly quiet even when the fans are at full rpm. It's a nice looking unit, but it is pretty large, so I would recommend taking measurements before purchasing. I have a full size ATX case and it fits like a glove.

ASUS GeForce GTX 660 GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 Video Card
Cons:Not really a con but I can see that this card can be a little to large/long for some builds.

Pros:Fantastic value for a great video card under $200. Runs cool & quiet.
Comment:
Snagged this one for ~$180 (not including the $20 rebate) during one of the surprise specials. This card replaced an old Nvidia 9600xt that was in a 2 year old build with an i5 2500k proc (overclocked). So now there's new life and then some in my 2+ year old build for gaming. I'm a casual gamer so a video card like this is great.Able to run most games at or close to their highest settings at 1980 X 1200 for playable frame-rates. I have this card overclocked from the default setting (via. Asus GPU tweak) by 78 MHz more for the GPU and 600 MHz more for the memory without any issues. Runs cool & quiet as well. I have yet to see this card break a sweat with regards to fan noise & temperatures.In short - fantastic value and performance for a card that can be had for under $200.

Comment:
Bought it to replace radeon 7770. I also had a AMD FX 4170 paired with my radeon. kept getting errors and bluescreens and after hours upon hours of troubleshooting decided to finally go with a new card. BEST IDEA EVER! Decided on this card for several reasons, i love ASUS (always great quality), good reviews on multiple sources, cant beat the price with NCIX sale - MIR - and Two free games. SOLD. I also decided to go with this card because a 760 is an extra $100 and at that point id be bottlenecking at CPU. so i went for the cheaper (yet still amazing) card and also purchased a AMD FX 8350. So far this card rips, BF4 ultra setting (AA & Vsync maxed) at 45FPS, skyrim fully maxed at 60 fps. renders HQ videos like a champ too. After heavy session card sits at around 50c. i manually control the fans and even on 95% its not too loud at all. Card looks beauty as well. it is long though so make sure she fits.

Comment:
Great card. Super quiet and cool and runs superbly. I can run most things on max 1920x1200 with no issues. The other good thing is the price. There are often sales for this card that make it cheaper than others. Note, though, this card is fairly large. My friend got one in an antec 300 just barely.

Cons:Doesn't handle AA very well

Pros:Great Performance/Price point
Comment:
The card is amazing for its price. Going to be getting another very soon and run them in SLI. I play all games maximum settings with the exception of anti-aliasing, usually this is turned off completely.Running BF4 at 50+ fps Ultra with AA off, coupled with an i5-3570k.This goes on sale ALL the time, it can go as low as $159 with rebates. Highly recommended, you won't regret it.

ASUS GeForce GTX 660 GTX660-DC2O-2GD5 Video Card
Cons:the shroud around the heatsink has large gaps so hot air blows/leaks into the case instead of going out.

Pros:Quiet, stays very cool under high load.
Comment:
Great frame rates at very high to high settings in most recent games. I would get higher fps but I'm sure im held back by only having a dual core (a gateway dx-480 that i got at a garage sale.)It is very quiet and is always cool. Issue with the heatsink shroud having gaps all along it that let the heated air from the card recycle back into case, but since the card never breaks 60C even under high load inside a crappy garage sale box with only a single fan this hasn't presented a problem. Because of this the product gets 4 stars instead of 5.Battlefield 4: 60fps average (not peak) on high settings single player. 35fps on multi on high.FarCry 3: 30fps avg on ultra, 40fps on high.All other games - Metro LL, Civ5, bioshock infinite, Batman Arkam city: 60fps on ultra high.

Cons:None so far

Pros:Relatively good performance/price ratioAsus qualityAlready overclocked (even though it's a bit on the safe side)Nearly silent even under load
Comment:
I bought one of these about a month ago to add to my build running a 4770K z4.4Ghz. I was planning some casual gaming... Honestly, this card alone is more than enough to play all games, including intensive FPS, at high fps but maybe not on Ultra settings. But I could easily run BF3 at 80-110 fps on medium settings, on high it would go down a bit, but was still playable for single player missions. The card is nearly silent even under load, which is surprising.Then I decided to go back in gaming more seriously, so I got a second one to put them in SLI. Wow... These cards scale very well in a dual GPU setup (go look at some reviews and tests of GTX 660 in SLI)! And my build is still close to silent even while gaming!I love these cards...

Cons:Installation wasn't as according to the manual... plugged it in and lost all my display capabilities, even on motherboard. Inserted driver disc and everything worked out smooth. Got me worried for a couple minutes though.

Pros:2 DVI ports for multiple displays, quiet, powerful, and more than exceeds all my CAD requirements, for less $$ than a workstation graphics card. Well worth it.
Comment:
Bought this card to take the rendering load off my CPU for doing CAD work. Packs way more punch than a similarly priced workstation graphics card. Very happy with it so far, and every other Asus product I own.
