5 out of 5 stars Excelente VGA   October 31, 2008
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

Excelente VGA, aunque calienta un poco mas de lo que quiera, no me quedo, buen precio y excelente rendimiento. La cambie por una BFG 8800GT OC2 y actualmente tengo un monitor de 19" y si se nota bastante el cambio gracias tambien al manejo de CFAA de 24x de ATI.

Recomendadisima



5 out of 5 stars Be Careful!   October 18, 2008

Be careful! Why? Well... you may not be able to play older games with this card haha.

Really though, I was playing Painkiller Black Edition and upgraded to this card (from two 2600 crossfired cards) and now I can't play the game because all the monsters are wicked fast lol.

Other things to know:

The card is hot hot hot. I thought that was just the x2 version with two gpu's but the single version seems to run at about the same temp - around 70c wow!

The card is huge in length. I have a mid tower (brand new Cooler Master 690 No P/s) and it fit with very little room to spare. If your case is on the smallish side you may want to take measurements and look at what power connections, ide or sata connections, or power cables might be in the way.
This card requires two power connections.

You really will need good air flow in your case or water cooling with this card. The ambient temps in my case (according to Everest Ultimate) runs around 32c. My old case ran about 10 degrees hotter around 45c. As hot as this card is I don't think it would have worked very well in my old case. Something to consider.

As far as performance of the card ... it performs as a top tier card should. I don't have anything to stress it with at the moment but there are plenty of reviews available on the internet that thoroughly detail the technical side. I couldn't compete with that so I won't try.

I highly recommend the CM690 by the way. Great looking case and very well designed too.
