Fast, but not stable!

Fast card, replaced a single 8800GTX (I didnt want a dual cpu or sli card at this time). I run 1920 x 1200 max settings, Cod2 went from 90-120fps to 120-200fps! COD 5 went from 40-60fps to 70-120fps avg. At these resolutions and settings that's awesome!

It locked up on me 2 times first night, I think like others have said the stock OC may be too much? Lowered cpu freq to 675mhz from 698mhz and so far didnt lock up! BFG is recommending adjusting IRQ (almost impossible) and doesnt think it is the card causing the issue, but it is the only thing locking up.

Happy with this card, hope to resolve lock ups!

GTX 285 yes.... OC2...NO!!

Very fast card by itself, even faster when paired with a second!!

I have two of the OC2's and neither works at OC2 speeds. Downclocked to reference speeds they run great but at OC2 speeds they BSOD like crazy. I have RMAd both, twice and still no luck. Bummer

I dont mind regular GTX 285s but if I paid for OC2 speeds it'd be nice to get cards that would work at that speed. Oh well.
