    I upgraded to this card from a Nvidia 8200 GT and The difference is incredible. I went from running WoW at 12-30 fps on lowest settings to running on average 90-110 fps with almost all the settings turned up. An amazing card for the value.

    I bought two of these, and so far they are running exceptionally well. Be advised tho, this card runs hot. After installing it my box temps went up 3-5 degrees. I would advise using the EVGA Precision program and setting the fan to run at no less than 45-50% at all times. I would also advise that you make sure you have room for this thing, its big full-height and long.

    I bought two Running them side by side, They have Full performance capable on any game! It seems to work best with earlier driver version as the newest one created conflicts with my Bios which resulted in Fractals. Rolled the video driver back and the problem went away, but that is a common problem with SLI. Card temp does not exceed 65 degrees Celsius even when running full load with sufficient air cooling system.

    this thing is blazing fast! it will run crysis on all high and aax2 without lagging. and it will run every mmorpg out there on the highest settings without a tiny bit of lag. the mmorpgs i play are wow, eve, and second life, all running at max settings. this is a cool card too. due to my btx motherboard, this thing sits about 1/4 an inch away from my processor, so even with my processor heat directly hitting the card it still keeps good temps of 40 on idle and 71 on a full load, and thats with a stress tester, it never gets over 65 even when i play games like crysis.


    Suprised!

    I enjoy using my new computer that I build. I have this card in a EVGA x58 3xSLI Classified Mother board and it runs like a dream. I set it up and with out installing the drivers the windows rating (on windows 7 RC1) was 6.0 for aero and gaming. I was a little sad to see after installing the most upto date driver that it kicked my performance down to 5.9. Either way it is still an amazing Card and I will be buying a second one in the future to add to my system.
