Pros: Upgraded to this from an 8800GTX. Solid upgrade, but wasn't as epic as going from an X1900XT to the 8800GTX. Runs Crysis Warhead well with a mix of Medium/High/Very High @ 1920x1200. from Newegg.com Pros: Faster than the GTX 260 Core 216 It replaced. Purchase price of $269.00 Brand NewNot a game I can;t max out--@ 1920X1080 Crysis,FC2,COD 4, GTA 4 .. from Newegg.com I bought this card recently when I completely upgraded my computer. It came as advertised. It can be a bit of a power hog,so make sure you have the power supply to handle it. The performance is amazing..... from Amazon.com Pros: Great performance on this card. The GTX 280 owns all of the console Ports (2560x1600 at various levels of AA). Cons: High power requirements, my older BFG 550 watt PSU didn't cut it, I had to get a PC Power & Cooling 650watt (the stated minimum 12volt Rail Amperage is no joke). from Newegg.com Pros: Price, price, price... Relatively cheap compared to other similar cards in the market (lookout for 10% discount usually during weekends). Solid build & performance during heavy gaming in SLI with maxed out settings. from Newegg.com Pros: Saw an improvement in FPS and content from the start. Moved up from an 8600GTS. Was debating on getting 9800 GTX 1 GIG or a 260, go figure, I get the 280GTX. Thought about even getting an even higher one, but I plan to SLI these within a year so don't think I need to buy a more expensive card. from Newegg.com Pros: This card is fast. I was coming from using a GeForce 7600 GS to this. I'm able to play BF2 with everything on high, including AA. from Newegg.com Pros: I've got the card from B&M in Sunnyvale CA, store couldn't print the rebate form ate the register, and they promised to mail it to me. From my experience, I shall not hope for that rebate. The form is specific for the store, and to be eligible at BFG it has to be the original print copy. So, most likely I will return that card. from Newegg.com Pros: This card does wonders for gaming. It is also nice to have integrated PhysX. from Newegg.com Pros: Definately a well made card. So far temps are the card are real good, performs well with all 3d games, and Nvidia has stepped up their driver support. Lifetime guarantee and great bundle (Far Cry2 and 3dMark Advantage) with the card. from Newegg.com
