Pros: this card is an absolute beast plays any game on high. i have this card in a thermaltake micro lanbox and a dfi x58 board and my temps never go above 70c even when playing crysis. so i cant see why people down on this card when its within spec. the ati 4870x2 goes beyond 90c and thats within there spec. if you can afford this card then you could afford good cooling and as for warranty evga has got the best warranty. you can overclock the cards till they blow up and they still take them back, what other company warranties more than 3 years? well i have had to return a motherboard and a couple graphics cards and have had no problems. i got the new card they sent me got my system running and then i sent the defective one back. people should get some knowledge before putting down a product and company.

Cons: people without knowledge and good cooling

Overall Review: I7 920 @ 3.3, dfi x58 microboard, gtx295, thermaltake lanbox the one with the handle, 3 60mm exhaust fans and 1 90mm intake, gskil ddr3 6gigs, 300gig velociraptor, samsung dvd, silverstone 700 watt psu da700= great power supply 58 amps on the 12volt rail, vista premium 64bit. it all adds up to great gaming

Pros: its a decent hard drive i bought it cause i thought it was a good deal after the rebate. my seagate 32meg cache ES.2 drive is just a little slower than this overpriced raptor in my opinion, and my seagate was $100 for 250gigs.

Cons: never again will i buy western digital. i bought it thinking about the price after the rebate. so now me and my buddy, in my opinion overpaid and are sc**ed out on $60. out of 11 rebates this has been the only one that was a fake.

Overall Review: i emailed the supposedly checkmyrebate.com website and they said they have no info on either my friends rebate or mine. ill definitely keep buying seagate they are cheaper and maybe just a tad slower.

Pros: i absolutely love this case. its crazy sturdy and yes its a little bit heavy with everything in it but its so sexy it doesnt even matter. i went from a coolermaster rc-690 with 7 fans and lots of space to this project of mine, which i thought to myself can a small case have enough arrggh to put those big rigs to shame. we'll i say heck yea. read other thoughts for system info

Cons: delete this box please. thermaltake rules

Overall Review: ok so heres my system spes, intel qx9650 running at 3.34gigs, asus g35 motherboard, 2 gigs of mushkin ram im going to be putting in one more gig, zalman cnps8700 cpu cooler on this one if you buy it make sure you look at it from the bottom and you'll see one side of the heat pipes are smaller so put that side towards the northbridge heatsink, evga gtx280 ssc (my baby) , antec modular psu 550w, 3 thermaltake 4500 rpm 60mm fans, 1 90mm 4000 rpm thermaltake fan, seagate 250gig hd with 32 meg cache, dual booting xp and vista, logitech g15 with g5 mouse,sytrin hard drive cooler, and all this in this great thermaltake case o yea in order to fit the gtx280 i had to move the hard drive to one of the 5.25 drive slot and cut a little bit of the hard drive cage on the side by the window

Pros: this card is sweet i came from having an evga 780i, 2 8800 gts's g92 in sli with 2 gigs of ocz ram and my score in 3dmark06 was 15,550 now with a micro asus g35, single gtx280 and 2 gigs of mushkin ram i get 17,778. and all this wonderful technolgy in a thermaltake lanbox the one with the handle.

Cons: are you kidding this box shouldnt even be here.

Overall Review: you cant go wrong with this card evga has great customer service, very long waranty that even covers overclocking and best of all you pay a little bit more when you register the card and get the cross shipping ear program. nothing more to say then i wish i would of got the f-t-w version even though the precision utility lets you overclock easily. thanks for looking have a great day. frag you in battlefield 2 ki77abee out.
