I got this game at an awesome price for 249.99 during a surprise sale. This game runs almost all games on 1680x1050 maxed out except for Cyrsis (30-40 on high), Farcry 2 (30-40 maxed out), and Fallout 3 (40-50 maxed out). Surprisingly this card does not get that hot but it does make a whirlwind and a noisy sound (I think it's normal) when the fan is 100%. I don't know if this is because of my Antec 900 but either way it's great.

Very good card especially when you get it on the "Suprize Specials" sale. Runs everything great. If only it was the Core 216 Superclocked, then it would definately be 5/5. Other than that there are no weaknesses really.

I got this for $250 during the weekly NCIX sales. Upgraded from an 8800gt. The extra video memory helped when playing at high settings textures. (512 mb to 896 mb). Might of been bad time to buy one since the 55nm refresh is coming soon as Nvidia stopped producing 65nm.

It plays all the games I play on the highest setting at 1680x1050. Total steal at the $219 after MIR price I payed for it, EVGA's support is great if you ever have any troubles with the graphics card.
