I got two of these running in a water cooling SLI setup and they have no problems running any games. Previously, I owned the 9800GX2 and I hated - had many problems, didn't run Crysis well at all, etc. So these are a huge improvement. The only offset is price vs. performance. Now I'm waiting for the next best thing to come along...

This card will take whatever you throw at it. I am more than please with this purchase. Everything runs. I completed a video test in Counter-Strike Source running on 1440 x 900 with full maxed out everything (AA, Smoothing and bloom, etc) with an average frame rate of 260. Playing Call of Duty 4 with this is an experience on its own. Everything runs non-stop and is absolutely fantastic. I've yet to have a problem with anything related to this card and can't wait to get my 2nd one for SLI.

This is a great card. Faaaast, runs Crysis at Very High 1440x900 nicely. Upgraded from 2x 8800GT SC in SLI and this beats that setup hands down. Only complaint I had, which is more of a complaint about my case, is that I had to move my hard drive bay down to fit the card in the primary PCI slot. I won't be able to run these SLI unless I modify my case (Don't plan on running them SLI though...lol)(Case in question is the Antec 900 Gamer Case)

Thia card is nothing short of amazing. It runs everything perfectly. Every game I have tried so far, it can handle them at their max settings extremely well. It could even run DX10 Crysis at 1920x1200, all settings set to "High" with 4x AA smoothly. I was amazed.
