Very fast card. I can run any games I have, with full settings on my 1600 x 1050 lcd.       » READ MORE

 Rated by LC0g, August 22, 2008

My VisionTek card is now running smooth. I flashed it to an ASUS T.O.P. BIOS : the fan problem is solved, and the core is running at 815MHz and the memory is running at 925MHz (3700MHz effective). Great card, great perfomance. Get it. You can also CrossFire it on ANY Intel board (wich we all love) and get very high Anti-Aliasing quality, especially with the new Custom Filtering AA developped by ATI/AMD.      » READ MORE

very good card own cod4 and every fps game ther is except crysis bioshock look amazing but rruns alittle hot, lokking into aftermarket cooling soon      » READ MORE

 Rated by Ryan_M, August 21, 2008

Runs crysis blazing fast on high settings, played through the entire game on directx 10 until the last level where it kept crashing and the sky occasionally went completely white. Turning to directx 9 solved this. Evidently there are some driver modifications to be made. Also, out of hte box the card runs very hot. Using the fan tweak (google it) brings the temperatures down to a very nice level wall ithout deafening you.       » READ MORE

I went from an 8800gt to this, I'm impressed! Theres no game that I play on a regualar basis that I cant max out teh settings. Only one is crysis. The heat issue is minor and easilly fixed with the fan mod. The new 8.8 drivers seem to have fixed any small glitches I was having.      » READ MORE
