Excellent valueOverclockedThe cooling is impressive not best of the line this is a great value. In combination with an 1100T I'm getting 60fps in SC2 and 60fps in LoL all on the highest graphics settings at 1920x1200. When items go crazy in SC2 it drops no reduced than 30. Thinking of the price, this is the way to go.

The heatsink and incorporated software will guarantee that you won't have overheating problems. The integrated HD audio drivers alleviate the require for a S/PDIF bypass. Regardless of the size of the fan it has not raised the noise level on my Pc either. Overall I am very pleased My two year old son was very disappointed when I had to this "racecar" inside of the computer. I don't understand either. This point is a monster. If you were paying by the ounce you'd have the finest deal on the planet. I had to move my hard drives just to accommodate it. I don't really take into account this a con due to the fact I half anticipated it, just anything you should keep in thoughts when you plan on getting this issue.

Card was simple to install and came proper up when I booted up. Had some issues with the drivers I currently had installed, but once I loaded the drivers integrated with the card, it worked wonderful. None so far Am only utilizing one particular card, and the newest nVidia drivers result in sever stuttering and lag on games. The drivers on the install disc (which had been released October of 2010!) work perfectly on all games. I'm even capable to play StarCraft II on the highest settings with no issues at all. Definitely suggest this card to anybody on a spending budget.

the graphics on it are much better than my old 9600gt, the computer is quieter and cooler so they were right about that, plays WOW on fantastic graphics setting and runs among 30 to 120 fps, Bad Organization two i can see a lot farther with a sniper, so very good card the newest drivers slowed down almost everything exactly where i could even move on a game, i don't know if its a system the card came with causing the difficulty or the driver itself want the drivers worked Manufacturer Response:Dear Valued Buyer,We apologize for the concern you're experiencing with this graphics card.

* * I have a X-Energy 585 PSU with იv 20A and იv 19A will this card function on my psu? My old 8800gtx only employed one cable from my psu this 1 appears to want 2.

Quiet, cheap and does the job.. mainly it worked fantastic; a tad underpowered in that i couldn't really max out graphics in some games without unacceptable frame rates. After 3 months windows stopped the device mainly because it was reporting challenges and I began obtaining horizontal lines across the screen and clearly any advanced use didn;t operate. I might revisit this primarily based on my expertise with ASUS, so far contacting them about an RMA has been a discomfort.

Fantastic bang for the buck, a 1Gig Video Card for under 贎. I bought this card to replace a 256meg BFG 7600GT OC. Awesome Video Card that comes with it's own O.C computer software. How cool is that? Haven't upped any settings yet,But I plan on performing a complete Pc Overclock. If your looking for a nice newer card that can run what you want, This is the card for you. Haven't figured the Rebate out however for the ฤ.00. But a steal at 贡 anyways.I give it five Eggs, Even though I had it out with UPS. Wished Fed Ex would get smart and cease reaming Shoppers. It isn't a 1TB Card...;) Have your Hard Drives and other Accessories out of the way of your PCI-E slots. This Card is a MONSTER!Possibly the greatest Video Card I have ever seen. :)____________________________________DFI Lanparty NF590AMD X2 4600+ Windsor @ three.0Ghz Overclocked8 Gig of OCZ Platinum OCZ 700 Watt PSU2 250 Gig Seagate Drives4 Delta 120mm Fansfour Delta 80mm Fans

This card performs as effectively as 2x 9600gt in sli. (sometimes the 9600 sli nonetheless beats it but if you purchased 2 of these then you will rock) Which still runs games quite properly. I have recently upgraded my technique to 2x gtx460 but that is a considerable expense difference. I bought this card to run in my son's computer to play his lego games. This is not a higher powered card but it is good adequate to run most games at medium settings. You get an oc'ed asus card with a 20.00 rebate for 109.00 . Get two and you have a fairly decent gpu to run your games at higher settings. None for the dollars spent. excellent cards but need to be sli to maximize the frame prices in games right now. Also very large card requirements lots of room in case to match and ventilate. Excellent value for just over one hundred bucks. If you program to run a 1920 resolution then you will need to skip this card and go for the gtx460 at minimum. I suggest the EVGA ssc+ 850mhz superclocked for 199.99 (get two if you can afford it then your besting a single GTX580).

Awesome video card. purchased one particular to go with an Intel Core i3-550 for gaming. I usually play Globe of Warcraft, Starcraft II, Rainbow Six Vegas two, among others. I've been in a position to put all the graphics settings maxed out and rarely see the fps drop under 60. Only factor I've noticed is that when playing SC2 with settings maxed out that it will have a hiccup from time to time. but that game can be really a hog. I'm shopping for a second of these to repair that difficulty, I'm sure it will have no troubles in SLI Certainly a great acquire for the price. Good enough I'm getting a second a single. Regrettably Newegg is out of stock on this or I'd be getting it from them. but I found a different from a distinct site for only บ.00 far more so not too bad.

* * if you appear closer at the specs of your PS it has 2 20A rails for a total of 40A this card need to run on your PS no difficulty, unless you have tons of HD's in your comp.

Runs cool, pretty quiet. (Only saying that cause it can't be heard more than something else in my personal computer)Overclocking tools allowed me to go to 925mhz devoid of raising the VCore (none) SpecsMSI NF750-G55AMD Phenom II X4 925 @ three.36 Ghz4GB DDR3 1333 @ 1600mhzOCZ 600W PSU

This card is WAY far better then I thought it would be. It gets 40 FPS on Bad Organization 2 at the highest settings! This card will run any game you throw at it (Crysis may possibly go down to a little under 30 FPS on ultra but it really should be fine). Gonna get a second one particular soon to aid with rendering.

Incredibly good card that preformed effectively, and is perfectly fine for mini towers and larger systems. There are two style flaws with this card if you program to create a LAN box. The 1st flaw is that the heat sink pipes on the major of the card are to high for most LAN box trays so you would have to pop your case and pull out factors like your PSU to try and fit this in. The second flaw is the upward facing power connector. For a LAN box, exactly where there is currently restricted space, the upward facing power connector is probably to hit your drive bays. A relative purchased this as a present for my LAN box. I struggled with it for a number of hours, before having to break the news that we had been going to have to RMA it and get a various card. We were both a small sad.

Quiet. Stays Extremely cool. At idle in my situation (Nzxt tempest) it sits about 28C. Plays left 4 dead two max settings total aa vsync on, no challenge. Crysis isn't too bad either. No aa, no vsync but all settings on extremely high, at 1600x900, incredibly quite playable. Negative corporation two plays fairly effectively on total settings as well. Doesnt OC as nicely as I'd hoped :( No dual DVI ports but I think that's due to the total size HDMI port. I wish I could give half an egg producing it four.fiveǛ but, meh. A lot of folks say this is a massive card. Compared to other mid range cards to high end, this is a typical size. Fits perfectly in my case.A regular atx board, this card doesnt even touch the edge of the correct finish of the motherboard (Meaning it's not truly that extended) It wont fit too nicely in a smaller midtower situation with the challenging drive cables pointed to the rear of the case.

Gives an incredibly upgraded graphics expertise compared to the HIS X1650 pro I had! As example, I adore Borderlands, but had to dumb down the graphics to minimal so the visuals weren't a stuttering/lag fest. With this, I have anything maxed, and runs smooth as silk on my 23.6'' Asus. Very same for Mass Impact two and Bulletstorm. Have all my games at 1920x1080 now. Video has seen some improvement as well, but not an overwhelming quantity like the games. Cooling can be a little loud below load, but my pc was currently type of a jet engine as far as noise goes. So, not to massive of a deal. For the particular person on a budget like me, this is a wonderful card and I couldn't be a lot more satisfied with the obtain. It blew my expectations out of the water. No 趚-踰 card required!

sturdy, nicely packaged, effectively made, does what it really should, at least so far, runs extremely quietly even although the fan looks Massive, also runs extremely cool.. i don't tweak any of my hardware as i like factors to last for ages .. as cool as it runs stock i would expect it would overclock well if a single wanted to push it, nvidia lists a 400psu required and mine is just that and a rather weak one particular, but the card hasn't taxed my psu unit at all.. as Enormous as it looks, nonetheless fit into my mid-tower without any difficulty despite the fact that i assume my mid is on the large side compared to most... just about the identical length as my mATX board.. compared to a couple other cards i tried.. i get the feeling that a clutz like me could drop it on a tile floor, choose it up, stick in the slot, and it would possibly nonetheless perform..it is STURDY.. i'm not likely to test this observation out myself however... the application is childish hunting and seems to eat lots of resources from my method.. so like other individuals have suggested in testimonials...... i run outsider vendors' software program to monitor it.. it is large, and truly longer than nvidia's internet site spec's but it's overclocked so the fan setup adds to the size.. evga's and msi's monitor and overclock programs both show it running specifically at specs listed by ASUS on the box

Replaced a 9600GT with this. Win 7 practical experience index went from 6.eight to 7.3. Not a huge jump but ok.CUDA based transcodeing went from 35 FPS to 330 FPS. WOW! None. I constructed a new rig a few months ago just for doing AV trancodeing and authoring DVD and BD.Its an AMD Phenom two 3ghz quad core machine with four GB of DDR3-1333 ram and AMD 785G chipset. I had an old MSI 9600Gt video card with only 64 cores. This new card with its Fermi GPU and 192 cores brought my frame rate up from 35 to 330. I am making use of MediaCoder with its h.264 CUDA encoder.Just so you know CPU based h.264 is a miserable 17 FPS.
