5.0 out of 5 stars Good Video Card February 14, 2012
Amazon Verified Purchase
I ordered two of these video cards to upgrade a couple of systems for SWTOR. With all settings on high we consistently get 28-35 FPS sometimes as high as 50. That makes the game basically seamless with no stutter or vid lag. When they arrived one of them was broken. I called the manufacturer as instructed by the packaging and was told to mail it directly to them and expect 7-10 days turnaround. This would also mean paying shipping on the return. Also EVGA told me $29.99 for cross shipping. I hung up and called Amazon they immediately overnighted me a new card. I just wanted to mention how great amazons customer service was and how poor evga's was.

5.0 out of 5 stars A non-power user's take November 9, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase
As much as I love my computer and as much as I love gaming, I tend to game on consoles and use the PC more for the Internet and applications like Photoshop, with only the occasional strategy game like those in the Civilization or Battle for Middle-Earth series. So, since I was building (somewhat) on a budget, I didn't need a super-awesome card, but I did want more power than my board's onboard capability could provide. I also like running a dual-monitor setup, so any video card I bought would have to support that.

Within these parameters, this card performs beautifully. Dual DVI ports handle both monitors with ease, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the card came with a DVI-VGA adapter so I could hook up my VGA flat-panel right off the bat next to my DVI widescreen. I've been able to run all my games at their highest graphical settings without a single hiccup.

Driver installation was also a snap with the included disk, and I particularly like how you could specify which drive to install to, as my OS is on a small 40GB SSD with a larger 750GB HDD for file storage (I still installed it on the SSD for speed, but it was nice to have the option not to *have* to).

Keep in mind that the car takes up the vertical space of two PCI slots, so depending on your motherboard it may cover up the slot below it. I lost a PCI x1 slot (the small black ones), but I wasn't using it anyway and had another one to boot.

If you're not looking for the absolute pinnacle of cutting-edge graphics, but still demand good performance from your graphics card while maintaining a reasonable price point, I highly recommend considering this card.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great card January 9, 2012
Thought I would upgrade from a 9800 GTO with 512MB to this one and am glad I went for it. It was a little more expensive than I usually go even though it is well priced in its tier. Very easy to install (as someone mentioned, it takes 2 slots -- also of note, it requires a 6 prong power connection to run the fan). Popped it in, booted up, went to nVidia's website to get the latest drivers (I never bother with the out of date CDs) rebooted and bam, everything was up and running in all its beautiful glory. I've been playing SWTOR lately and I'm pulling a 50-60 fps running around with everything (including shadows) on high. With shadows on low (where I actually prefer it) I have 70-80 fps on average. In quiet places (like my ship) I've seen it go as high as 107 fps. :D All in all very nice. I couldn't be happier.

3.0 out of 5 stars Well it's a decent card, but drivers have problems
Alright, so this seems to be a common problem amongst NVIDIA type graphics cards lately. It seems that the drivers have a tendency to stop responding and recover. Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Solid Graphics card!
Plays most of my games on high settings. It's relatively affordable, and it works well! (I also use it for 3d rendering via photoshop/illustrator, which also works well)

It broke on me after 6 months. Was rather disappointed that it did not live up to the expectations I was expecting, which was at least a year.
