then i moved it to the new system and found all the games i play (wic,sins,flatout uc,tf2) with settings all the way up and frame rates still in the 35-40 fps range cons: the card is tall due
the card is awsome,best video card for the money.video qualolity on this card is the best i have ever seen in a long time.if the caracters were crying (in the game) you would see it a good distance
the card also looks like if you tried to crossfire one of the copper heat pipes would get in the way, but i would ask someone who tried to crossfire it first before taking my word on it.
from nvidia to ati, uninstall the drivers from the control panel and then run driver cleaner pro in safe mode to get rid of crumbs left behind.i am running vista ultimate 64-bit so it is compatible.
other thoughts: i use this to play a very old flight sim - falcon4.0 - this card is still ready by the software and allows the game to be played with imporoved stability and frame rates, even in the
would highly recommend it to any gamer who cannot afford the higher gtx 295s or 290s cons: i wouldnt say this is a con, but the card is massive in length.
so far all i've really tested is wow, but i can report that it handles that at "ultra" settings and laughs at it.
with one card i can run any game great with all eyecandy turned up.i even got two of these monsters for two for the price of one.
i have a full atx case and it touches my hard drives and blocks most of my sata ports, but wow the graphics are great!!
the card has run great in wow (what i play most) and stays under 70 c with a moderate o/c (685/1477/1202)!
i came from a x800xt and the diference is so far away that the first time that i play games with this card it was jaw drooping im really happy with it, best decision in a long time all gaming
you know that if a card can run crysis on high settings with anti aliasing then you know it can run any other game maxed or near maxed out settings.
this a in my opinion a very good upgrade if your system will tolerate the specs,it took my vista experience from a 4.8 to a 5.9,my old card was a radeon hd2600pcie 512mb memory,it does run a little
this card runs all my games at highest settings with max aa/af with no lag.
you can crank the fan speed with catalyst control center and keep it cool during stressful gaming sessions.
do you want to buy a card thats on the top of the gaming market, and breaking the boundary into the enthusiast market?
under a buck for this card and a free game.
i hope to do a little gaming with it.
so far plays world in conflict at highest settings and anti-aisling, which this game is pretty demanding for an rts.
usually runs games 35-40+ fps 1080p cons: when i engage aa or as filtering, things start slowing down pretty bad.
video card is for the serious gamer running todays games and tommorows.
it's improved my gaming experience as i've just upgraded from a 9800gt.
get empire total war to run in sli, with some nhancer help :) i'd also recommend using the evga sli enhancement download from nvidia it's an easy quick profile tweak to help with some pesky games.
not only better fps in games but i can add much more aa in games like crysis with little affect on frame rates.
i can turn up the fans while heavy gaming and turn them down while doing everyday computing.
