User Reviews for XFX GeForce 8800GTS 640MB XXX

Reviewed by:

Duration of ownership:

Strengths: Fits more cases than GTX and uses less power. No artifacts, high framerates, quiet.

Weaknesses: None

Overall Evaluation: Great thing about this card is the exhaust. I placed a cyclone exhaust blower next to the card and it helps cool the card. XFX card fan runs @ 60% but I turned that up to 80/85% with Ntune. Card never gets above 65 degrees centegrade even after hours of gaming!
