Good to know the noise is below the average as well. However I had bad luck with this one. When I try to switch the clone option on, in both Windows XP or Vista the video signal sometimes fails, loose sync or even the whole image either in one or both monitors. I'm using two Samsung LCD FULLHD, 32" and 40". from Amazon.com Pros: Great speeds, great FPS, great stability.... on one of my cards. I just upgraded from a 8800GT EVGA and there is a huge difference when running Aion, Crysis, and other graphic intensive games. Cons: I bought 2 for SLI and when I started up there was no image... from Newegg.com Pros: This card rocks, and makes everything sing on my Apple Cinema HD display. Everything plays (except for Crysis, stupid un-optimized engine) at 1920x1200, all settings maxed, with AA smooth as butter. Seriously, you haven't seen the beauty of Fallout 3 and V. from Newegg.com Included Software. Quality Performance. This is the best video card I have ever owned. It's also the first time I've bought the latest video card technology rather than buying "last years" technology at a discount. from Newegg.com Pros: This card runs just about everything out there and looks very sweet on high settings Cons: Can be troublesome at times Other Thoughts: Although this card is quite nice it can produce some interesting issues. I've seen a few posts about bad artifacting and heat issues in the EVGA forums. I...myself have an issue with a few "Lockups" and a monitor sleep issue which I'm working on. from Newegg.com Cod4, Deadspace, Champions Online, all MAX'd out and loving life! Free Batman Game, heck yeah! Wont need another card for a while and even if I do, EVGA has their Step-up program! Cons: Not really a con but default fan speed lacks. from Newegg.com Pros: A Great GPU, very powerful, EVGA Support, NVIDIA Technology... what more do you want? from Newegg.com Pros: The card is really good looking and fast. It can handle everything so far without any OC. EVGA precision software is great as well. Cons: The stock fan is not good enough to handle it. from Newegg.com Pros: - Ultra fast- SLI / Tri SLI Capable- Red, so it goes faster! (+1 for Warhammer geeks)I upgraded from an EVGA 8800GTX running a Dell 24" 2407WFP monitor @ 1920x1200. I was starting to see some from Newegg.com Good for Warcraft (see below). Cons: None Other Thoughts: I bought this card to improve my Warcraft FPS. Even with this card, I did not get amazing frame rates (18 FPS in raids). I upgraded my CPU and MOBO and THEN got amazing FPS. from Newegg.com
