5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent video card for a single card solution., September 5, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: eVGA e-GeForce GTX280 1GB DDR3 PCI-Express 2.0 Graphics Card-Lifetime Warranty with Free Special Edition EVGA Precision Overclocking Utility (Personal Computers)
A very expensive video card, and a good choice if you only want a single card solution. Depending on the resolution you choose to use will determine the overall or perceived performance. I have tested this card with the 3007 HC 30" monitor from Dell and it performed very well, at these resolutions you will not be able to set all settings on high without performance loss. I play a lot of online shooters and am mainly concerned with view distance and frame rate. I generally force 8x anisotropic filtering for better view distance and clarity, while turning special effects such as smoke, heavy shadows, lighting effects and motion blur off to maintain frame rate. For a 60Hz monitor a 120-125 frames per second is ideal when combined with a 2000 dpi mouse (or higher) set to 1000Hz (reports per second). The result will be butter smooth motion and extreme head shot value. I currently run this card on a Sceptre 37" 1080p monitor (HDTV) through DVI to HDMI at 1920x1080 @ 60Hz. Excellent results, I previously was running an 8800GTX, which is powerful in its own right; but I do have to concede the additional performance is certainly noticeable and welcome.

5.0 out of 5 stars if you ganna buy GTX280, October 22, 2008
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: eVGA e-GeForce GTX280 1GB DDR3 PCI-Express 2.0 Graphics Card-Lifetime Warranty with Free Special Edition EVGA Precision Overclocking Utility (Personal Computers)
it's a great choice, but i stongly recommend a good full tower case with perfect air flow, otherwise don't bother your self. All these new graphic cards are hot, so prepare your case.

5.0 out of 5 stars I dont think they will print this., October 8, 2009
This review is from: eVGA e-GeForce GTX280 1GB DDR3 PCI-Express 2.0 Graphics Card-Lifetime Warranty with Free Special Edition EVGA Precision Overclocking Utility (Personal Computers)
I cannot believe folks would sink so low as to try to get someone to pay almost $800 for this card.I paid 450 for it when they came out a littel over a year ago.they were worth 450 then,there are better and cheaper cards now,Amazon shouldnt let this kind of thing go on,If they wont be honest with you,At least let me...
