Duration of ownership:
Strengths: HDCP compliant,HD gaming, dual monitor support,GDDR5 RAM, price, hot air is exhausted to the outside of the case rather than the inside of the case
Weaknesses:Heat! Idles at 80 degrees Fahrenheit on the factory fan speed setting. Size is another problem. This card takes up two slots.
Overall Evaluation: I bought this card two months ago to replace my G-Force 8600GT. The difference between the two cards is like night and day. For under two hundred dollars you can have one of the best cards on the market.There is not much difference between this card and other more expensive cards that more than double the price of this card. My only complaint is that it runs hot, but you can change the fan speed settings in CCC to fix that. Over all I am very happy with this card and I highly recommend it.
