 Was Great Until It Died December 24, 2008
C. Jones (Phoenix, AZ United States)
Got this on Nov 22nd, 2008. Ran great. Ran Fallout3 at max everything glass smooth. Ran WoW max everything at 100fps until I upgraded to WOTLK, but even after that still got >40fps at almost all times.
Great card until the fan started making this horrific high pitched squealing. After about 40 minutes of that, it gave me incredible headaches. Tried fixing it by downloading eVGA's Precision utility and modulating the fan speed. That made it go away for an hour or two until the squealing came back.
Despite the price of this thing, I can only assume eVGA is using cheapo fans to cause the bearings to fail so fast.
I have never returned ANYTHING to Amazon, but I returned this. I'm buying an XFX instead... never had any problems with them.
 very very good and "safe" temperature compared to AMD 4870 December 11, 2008
Alexander Ang (cliffside park, NJ USA)
For over 3 months now I've been going back and forth either to get AMD's 4870-1GB or Nvidia's GTX260. I've been reading reviews stating that the 4870 runs really really hot which is really bad because it might potentially melt your motherboard or other computer component and maybe cause a fire. Also it consumes more electrical current. On top of that, some games prefer AMD, some games prefer NVIDIA and the games that I prefer happens to run better on NVIDIA !! I got it less than 2 weeks ago and been very happy with it :) Idle @ 54 degree C and Intense Playing @ 66 degree C :)
Nice video card for Crysis November 4, 2008

Definitely worth it. The SSC edition is discontinued so I don't know if this will help anybody. I have an AM2 6000+ with 3GB RAM and Vista 64. Crysis rocks with this card. It plays at 1280x1024 at ultrahigh for the first couple boards, but I had to turn it down to high settings for later boards. (Including turning the resolution down for the last big boss.)
My system couldn't push a 280 anyway, so this card was perfect. I wonder how much more I could get with PCI express 16x 2.0, but it does everything I want it to.
The seller was A+, no complaints, and fast ship time. (Electronica Direct.) Plus the card is EVGA, so if I have a problem, EVGA has very good support and RMA.

Great card. Mine came factory overclocked, even though I bought the basic version.
Handles anything I throw at it just fine, with AA turned up.
Got an awesome deal on it over a month ago, would buy it again!
