>> Another win from EVGA and nVidia
I got this card as a replacement for my ATI HD4850 Definitely an upgrade and performs every bit as well as I had hoped
As with all video cards in the 175 to 250 range you get the best performance for the money It doesn t matter if you go with ATI or nVidia just make sure the maker of your card has a good warranty program
If you game at 1680x1050 resolution this card is going to run almost everything you throw at it assuming that you have the CPU and RAM to back it up
Most importantly this card is from EVGA With EVGA you get an excellent lifetime warranty and technical support If the card ever breaks you can send it in and they will replace it with virtually no hassle
There are several things to be aware of before you get this card
1 Don t forget to register the card WITHIN 30 DAYS of purchase with EVGA Failure to do this voids your lifetime warranty
2 This card is BIG Make sure you have enough room in your case It takes up 2 slots and is very long
3 Make sure your power supply is up to the task of powering this card It does consume quite a bit of juice This doesn t mean that you need a 750 watt power supply just make sure the 12V rail s on the power supply can handle the addition of this card
>> great card dont blame your bad settings on the card
terrific card the only trouble this video card has given if it is even at fault is incorrect settings in the games oh yeah and it is a monster to get in the pc had to relocate sata cables so far so good
I get good graphics most things maxed out not shuttery never smoking hot very quiet except on startup and restart which is normal
my windows experience index is at all 5 9 except for processor speed which is 5 7 if that helps i got vista so max is all 6 s
>> Whay beyond Expectations
this video card is wayyyyyy Fast
you will be pleased stays cool and all of my games are very playable
