A great card for the price and best bang for buck of an older generation of video cards. I'd pick some more along the the 5770/5850 series if you're into the newest games but this still does the job although its becoming more noticeable that its falling behind.
Owned this for more than a year now, not a single problem. I think it's still the best bang for your buck GPU from last generation and it's still kicking ass this gen. Considering buying another one for SLI.

Very pleased with this purchase and will pick up another to run sli. Great bang for the buck. Just a quick note to some future buyers with mATX boards and cases, from this model & greater the cards are fairly big, and the more powerful and badder the card is the larger it gets.

It's amazing how fast technology keeps improving. It wasn't too long ago that this was considered the best bang for the buck card, like the 5850 is today. for a 120 dollars it's still not a bad deal. Can play most of today's top games without problems. If your on a budget, this card me be the one for you. Make sure to check out the new 5750 and 5770 first however.
