Though this card is a bit o...utdated, it is a perfect card when on a budget. I got mine for $62 with shipping. Even though it replaced a GTX 465, the performance difference is very noticeable. Handles a fairly significant overclock very nicely, which is just icing on the cake. Only complaint; the fan is very noisy above 80% speed. I overclock every one of my components and run a significant cooling system, so the loud fan only really bothers me above 90% speed - it's about as loud as a hair dryer. NOTE: Overclocking and modifications of any kind to the card WILL void your warrenty. Before overclocking, be sure to research a ton and be sure to monitor card temperatures!
...love this card! its whats in my computer right this second! overclocks great! never had any issues with any games or crashing problems! i can over clock it so its 4% faster than a gtx 570 with some upgraded air cooling! would recommend this card to anyone! i payed 200 new when it was still selling for 350 new!plays all my games at mid to high settings with ease
Extremely powerful card. I run this card single a...nd it more than willingly puts the effort forward to give me the performance I desire. Does not need to be overclocked for SC II nor any of the Source Games (i.e. Half Life 2, CS, TF2, and L4D). Runs at average 240 fps for Source games and avg 100 fps for SCII. The only downside to the card is that it is extremely hot, and the fan at full speed is louder than heck. I suppose this could be pro if you wanted a space heater during the winter. Just make sure to keep your fan about 60-70 percent.
You can get a ...GTX 470 at a very low price these days since Nvidia has released the GTX 600 series. For the price you are getting a very powerful graphics cards that even though it is not the latest, performs very well on most current games on high settings. Pros: Plays most current games like Far Cry 3 in high settings. Very affordable price. Cons: Runs hot and is power hungry.
great legacy card.. works as designed. the cas...e was damaged such that the cover clips were broken off. i removed the top casee, cleaned the unit, and taped the cover together... works like oil.
