BFG Tech GeForce GTX 260 BFGEGTX260MC896OCDE Video Card

Comment:
I have two of these in SLI and for $159 your crazy as hell to buy something else! These cards are clocked higher then any other vanilla/stock cards and also download eVGA precision Tool to crank up the fan speed. I hear this common complaint all the time, the card is too big well do some research before you buy an enthusiast level card next time, it's your fault not the card or BFG for bad planing!

This card ROCKS!!!! When i first got it i had some slight issues with Framerate but i quickly found out that it was a heating issue. So i updated my Case and installed a bunch of fans. (7 to be total). Runs COD4 maxed out at 90-200 FPS (going under 110 is rare but it happens) Runs any game i throw at it maxed out. (FPS doesnt completely rely on the GPU. so dont expect when buying it that ur going to get 110-200 just cuz u have this card)

Bought on sale at a price much lower than EVGAs. I usually choose EVGA cards, but I'm not disappointed by BFG.

Comment:
Overall I am very pleased with the initial performance of this card. The improvements in graphics quality, speed and rendering are vastly superior to what I was using in the past. Would definitely recommend this card to anyone looking to move up and not break the budget. If you are using a smaller case or want to attempt running two in SLI space may be an issue.

I now have 2 of these in SLI running at OCX clock speeds and they are smoking fast. I love them. Nothing holds them down. For the price they are super. I got my first one in Febuary and it came with the 100 day trade up, was in the process of doing that when the price dropped on these, so instead of a GTX 295 I got another of these and I am not sorry. I know 2 of these will hold their own against a single GTX 295. My only pet peave about the card is that out of the box it had some marks on the top of the card. I thought about returning it but the card works fine and I have a CM 690 case so you can't see it anyways. Its the only reason I gave it 4 stars instead of 5.

There are many brands of GTX 260 55nm version. This BFG product comes with lifetime warranty and the price is good. I did get the bing cashback also, made this card sweeter. I play FPS games and use CUDA for 720P conversion, So I get this card instead of the Ati cards. So happy!

Overclocks great! Great looking card. Performs very well.What more do you want me to say? It's cheap, buy it!

Comment:
I actually got this one because the one I wanted wasn't on sale anymore, still a great product. First upgrade in my new rig and can instantly see the difference. Works and installs well w/windows 7 CR.

Horrible quality. Read my post 'another will it power question', that turned into a struggle to get a card replaced. BFG recycles their PCB from returned or dead cards and sells them as new!! I received my PCB with food stains on the back. Smelled like caramel. Someone at BFG must have been hungry >.> It was factory sealed with a label that told me it was 'resealed after QC inspection'. Not enough accessories for my liking (dvi to hdmi adapter etc.)Awwwwwwwwwwwwwwwwww GREEEEATTTTTTTT!!! NOW I GOTTA ENTER MY ORDERIDedit: this thing has got to make it out there in time for people buying from the sale, so I'm going to give it a 3 star to bypass the delay, even though it deserves a -3 star.

Great card...running between 40c and 50c based on load I throw at it. No problems here!

Comment:
this card is a good buy and is a 216 core which means it beats out the the 260 original. i recomend this card to anyone suffering bad frame rates form thier 9800gts in sli.

The card is HUGE (physically). It barely fit into my Antec Sonata II case. However, once in place, it secured easily. Driver set up was quick and easy, thanks to nVidia, and I had the most recent drivers (dated May 6) installed within minutes. Performance in WoW on the new Ultra settings was very good. I get a steady 30-50 FPS in Northrend, and 60 FPS in all the old areas (at 1920x1080). As a note for those that don't know, the new "ultra" setting is nothing like old WoW, it takes a BEAST of a system to keep up with Ultra. Anyway, I have a problem with the card. Once or twice an hour, the screen goes blank for 1-2 seconds. It's irritating. I called and their only option was to RETURN it. I just wanted to exchange it ... Not sure why they'd prefer me to RETURN it. Oh well. I'll just return it and buy it again. It's a solid card, worth the money, if it works.
