Awesome GFX card!
Comment:
The GTX 260 is currently one of the higher-end cards on the market, and it preforms as such. Playing top-tier games with all the settings maxed on a 1650x1080 resolution with fps in the hundreds has never been cheaper. Great purchase on my part, well worth the investment. However the 275 does have substantially better specs, if you are willing to put the money into it. However the increase in specs will be slightly unnoticed until DX10 I assume.

EVGA GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 896-P3-1255-AR Video Card
Cons:none

Pros:decent overclocker, stays cool, lifetime warranty
Comment:
I bought my first one 6 months ago and was blown away. Big difference from my 7600gt's in sli. Bought my second one a few weeks ago and they sent me the SC edition (makes me want to buy another for tri-sli). They work great. Downloaded Batman with the free certificate right away. I got 60fps average with all settings maxed out and 1920x1200 res. in the game's built in benchmark. I am very happy. This review was modfied by poster @ 11-06-09 05:32 PM

Great card value!
Comment:
Bought this as a second GTX 260 for my sons new build. He was getting some pixelation with only one GTX 260 at high resolutions in Batman Arkham Asylum. The second card in SLI cured that completely and the game runs beautifully. Usual high EVGA quality in this card obvious right out of the box. Fans are very quiet. Card came with Batman Arkham Asylum and Lost Planet (backordered, came later) as a bonus so overall value was excellent.

EVGA GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 896-P3-1255-AR Video Card
Cons:None

Pros:EVGA's outstanding warranty/customer supportGreat Card
Comment:
This card is where it's at. You know how good the 260 is if you're looking at it. It would be a wise choice to get the EVGA version of other brand names due to their Lifetime Warranty even when overclocking and allow you to add an aftermarket HS as well! NICE

EVGA GeForce GTX 260 Core 216 896-P3-1255-AR Video Card
Cons:Big

Pros:Good performance, excellent lifetime warranty from EVGA.
Comment:
This is the second EVGA GTX 260 core 216 card that I buy. I am running SLI with an older 65nm core 216 card and I am getting good frame rates at high resolutions. Also with EVGA's lifetime warranty, you can not go wrong!

Best GPU for the money
Comment:
I had a problem at first, but it was probably my fault. Nevertheless, I got very good response from EVGA, and it works perfectly now. They took good care of me. Lots of extras included.

Cons:+Blue screen of death after 2 days......

Pros:+Fast Powerful Card when it was working :(.+Evga
Comment:
After 2 days of using this card, I started recieving the blue screen of death at random times, seemed to get worse. Computer would randomly restart everytime. Tried my old 7950GT KO, worked perfectly. This review was modfied by poster @ 10-15-09 07:37 PM

Great Card for the money
Comment:
Pros: Great Video Processing and awesome 3D effects, no lag with appropriate Monitor, 3D Depth is fully adjustable with proper motherboard and correct drivers. Windows Seven loads the card from the start, Vista requires some updated drivers. Playing Arkham Asylum with no problem in 25% 3D Depth and Overclocking is a breeze, not that it needs to be OCed CONS: Occasional Red Hued Screens when using Windows Media Center Programs and occasional glitching when 3D is left on while using other programs, doesn't really increase the quality of Bluray Movies even in 1080p. Did not want to take the first PCIex slot, could be Motherboard issue but acted the same on two Motherboards

Best Bang for your Buck
Comment:
I bought 2 of these and hooked 'em up in SLI. I gotta say it just looks sweet just lookin' at 'em in the case. Great card. I have both mine hooked up to a Vizio 22'' HDTV and the resolution is spectacular. Everything I throw at it runs smoothly. Sadly one of the two cards is bad but it's being RMA'd right now so no biggie. I read reviews saying it's a big card...well they seriously weren't joking. I got a full tower so no problem for me but for mid towers might have some squeeze play going on. Great card, buy it, you won't regret it.

Fantastic card and all that came with it
Comment:
At first, this card seemed like more trouble than it was worth. It did arrive very quickly, but i also had to order a new power supply to power it and i have a mini tower case, so i had to rearrange the entire case over the course of an entire day to get it to fit. However, when all was well, drivers correctly installed, and my bios finally realizing it was there, the increase in performance from the original integrated card was absolutely outstanding! All the games that i originally had lag on even on lowest settings, now don't even flinch on full high settings! Plus, the two free games and 30$ rebate made it a spectacular value!

I cant believe this card is only $155.00 after rebate.I have a evga gtx275 and this card is comparable.The best thing is lifetime warranty.

Monster
Comment:
I had to modify my case to install this monster. It takes up 2 full slots. Luckily ny motherboard has 2 pcie slots. the first one I tried it in the card blocked access to the SATA connectors. It fit in the second without blocking anything on the Motherboard. It also requires 2 - 6 pin power connectors, but includes 2 adapters that each take up 2 - 4 pin drive connectors, so be sure your Power supply can handle it. The board runs hot in my setup, about 56c on idle running 2 monitors.

Cons:This card is fairely big (it still fit in my CM690)

Pros:Pretty decent graphicsGood price for quality
Comment:
I bought this card for a new build about 2 months ago and i'm satisfied for now. I don't play a lot of games, but those that I tried could be runned at 1080 with high or max setting (and with medium AA)I would recommand this card as an updgrade or for a new intermediate build!

Big Card
Comment:
I knew what I was getting into size wise, but was still shocked at the size. About 10.5inch. Really great idle's at 40-50C, which is not too bad for being such a big card. Runs everything I've thrown at it on high so far. Glad I bought it. I would recommend.
