This card rocks. Its will let you play any game maxed out on all settings. I have an intel core duo E8400 and 4 gigs of memory and I get 19200 on 3D mark vantage on performance setting. I play crysis maxed out at 1920 by 1080 at 30 fps. This is all the card you need at this time. The BFG comes with a lifetime warranty even if you buy it used as I did.

I can't recommend this board highly enough. It handles everything I've thrown at it easily and even manages to stay cool in the process. My old 9800GTX ran extremely hot, and this outperforms it and runs cooler, too. It's simply a top-of-the-line card. BFG has excellent support (not that I've needed it for this card). It was a piece of cake to get it up and running - no issues or anything.

Make sure you have room in your case for this monster of a card, as well as a power supply capable of powering it. It can handle anything thrown at it, but that comes with certain physical requirements. (A case with support for heavy cards is nice here, due to the weight) If your computer can fit it and handle it, though, you really can't beat this card. Highly recommend this!

Hi

the 295 is a great card no doubt, BUT if you have a problem and need to RMA to Zotac, you are screwed and can wait months. read their RMA forums on the consistant tragedy of support after the sale. My card as been in the status of 'received' for 20 days and I cant get a update from them.
